Professionals use high-pressure steam cleaners, brushes, and specialized cleaning solutions for effective results.

One of the best ways to prepare for a home biohazard cleanup is not to touch anything. Do not remove belongings, even if they are of value or importance, from the area as they are likely contaminated. It’s essential not to use any cleaning products of your own, as the cleaning company will be using chemicals that could interact with your products. 

One thing you can do to prepare is take pictures of your space and belongings that need to be cleaned, especially if you plan on filing a claim with your insurance company. In addition, take time to make a list of items that are valuable, sentimental, or otherwise important. The cleanup company must evaluate these belongings to make sure they are safe. 

You should declutter first, then clean, especially when sorting through an entire estate. Decluttering reduces the number of items to clean and clears space to make cleaning easier. Once all items, such as large furniture, are relocated, you'll be able to clean efficiently. You can also hire a move-out cleaner to do a professional deep clean before you sell the home.

Aside from rinsing your sink with dish soap daily, we recommend disinfecting your sink one to two times per week. You can make your own homemade cleaning spray and have it ready for your weekly cleanings. If you work with raw meat in your sink, make sure you wash the entire sink basin and drain with dish soap immediately after use.
