Questions About Cleaning Up Blood in Garland
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the blood, do not wipe it up bare-handed and take photos if you can. Write down what the blood touched so the crew knows where to look.
Should I use cloth towels or paper towels to clean up blood?
Disposable absorbent towels are usually used so they can be bagged and thrown out as waste. Cloth towels that touch blood become contaminated laundry and need careful handling. Either way, wear gloves and never reuse a towel on another surface.
Can blood be removed from carpet?
Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.
Does insurance pay for crime scene cleanup?
It can. Many policies cover it after the deductible. If the blood came from a violent crime, the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pays up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016, with insurance used first. Questions go to the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933.
Do blood cleaners handle blood in a vehicle?
Yes. Blood on seats, floor mats, door panels and in trunks is cleaned and disinfected, and heavily soaked upholstery may need removal. Vehicle jobs follow the same protective steps as work inside a building.
How do you dispose of materials contaminated with blood?
Soaked items and used supplies are sealed in leak-proof bags and treated as regulated medical waste, not ordinary trash. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. A cleanup company can explain how its waste is handled.
