Old Enfield Murder Scene Cleanup: Common Questions Answered

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.

Does homeowners insurance cover homicide cleanup?

Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain cases. Renters policies often cover cleanup but not the building. Call your insurer before work starts and ask what applies.

What does the Texas program pay for?

It covers professional cleaning services and supplies, biohazard removal and hazardous waste disposal fees, within the limit. Structural repairs, restoration and replacing stolen property are not covered. Businesses and organizations cannot apply.

Does the Texas program pay if I clean it myself?

A person who cleans alone can be reimbursed for supplies. Hiring a company may allow the company's service costs to be reimbursed. Either way, keep every receipt. Only the Texas Attorney General can decide a claim.

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.

How to clean a murder scene?

It should be left to professionals. Blood and body fluids carry bloodborne pathogens and often soak deeper than they look. A crew contains the area, removes contaminated materials, disinfects and treats odor.
