Answers About Cleaning Up After a Death in Central Alameda, Los Angeles, CA

Who is responsible for cleaning up after a death?

Police and the medical examiner do not clean. The property owner, the family or the estate books and pays for cleanup. In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord or an attorney can explain the details.

What is considered an unattended death?

An unattended death is one where no one was with the person and they were not found for some time. It may be a few days or much longer. The term describes how the death was discovered, not the cause. Cleanup is needed because body fluids and odor may remain.

What should I ask a death cleanup company before hiring?

Ask how it contains the area, what protective gear it uses and how it disposes of waste. Ask what is included in the price and whether you get documentation for an insurer. Ask how it treats odor and what happens if a smell remains.

Will the neighbors know about the cleanup?

Crews work quietly and handle the job with discretion. Ask about arrival and parking details when you call. If a landlord needs to notify other tenants, that is the landlord's decision, not the crew's.

What happens to the carpet and furniture?

Porous items such as carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstery that absorbed fluids are usually removed and hauled away as biohazard waste. Hard items can often be cleaned and disinfected. The team explains which is which before work begins.

What should I not do after finding a death at home?

Call 911 first and do not touch anything. Do not try to clean fluids yourself, because they can carry germs. Do not vacuum or use household bleach. Wait for the authorities, then ask a cleanup team how to proceed.
