Hotchkiss Accident Scene Cleanup: Common Questions Answered

What should I tell my insurance company?

State the facts plainly: what happened, when and where. Ask what the policy covers and which documents are needed. Photos and receipts help.

Who cleans up blood after an accident?

A biohazard cleanup team does. Police, firefighters and medics do not. Blood can carry bloodborne pathogens, so a professional crew removes it with protective equipment and disinfects the area.

Is this the same as trauma scene cleanup?

The work overlaps. Trauma scene cleanup covers violent events and sudden deaths, while accident and injury scene cleanup focuses on blood left after injuries. Many crews handle both.

Is dried blood still dangerous?

Yes. Dried blood can still carry bloodborne pathogens, and wiping or scraping it can release particles. Crews wear protective equipment and use hospital-grade disinfectants.

Will the cleanup be discreet?

Yes. Ask about unmarked vehicles and quiet work practices when you call. Crews keep what they see private and do not discuss the job with others.

Can the team work at a business while it is open?

Often yes. A crew can close off one area, use barriers and signs and keep customers away from the work. Ask about timing and how the area is kept sealed.
