Questions Families Ask About Homicide Cleanup in Marina del Rey, CA

What should I tell the insurance company?

Say what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and which documents are needed. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.

Is the family expected to clean the scene?

No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.

What paperwork is needed for the claim?

Expect to supply a bill or receipt, itemized costs and an insurance declaration page or a statement of no insurance. Ask the cleanup crew what paperwork you get. There is no fee to apply, and no lawyer is required.

Do I need to be there during cleanup?

No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.

How do homicide cleaners clean up a homicide?

They seal off the area, wear protective gear and remove soaked flooring, drywall and furniture. Hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. Waste is hauled as regulated medical waste, and the air is treated for odor.

Who cleans up after a homicide?

Not the police or the medical examiner. They investigate and release the scene. Cleanup is a separate job for professional biohazard crews, hired by the property owner, a family member or a landlord.
