Whitmire Crime Scene Cleanup: Common Questions Answered
Do police clean up crime scenes?
No. Police collect evidence and then release the scene. Blood, bodily fluids and fingerprint powder stay behind. You, as the owner or manager, then book crime scene cleaning with a professional team.
What does crime scene cleaning include?
It includes blood cleanup, removal of soaked porous materials, disinfection, handling of broken glass and debris, residue removal and odor control. Crews also sort personal property and document the work for insurers.
What should I tell my insurance company?
State the facts plainly: what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and what paperwork it needs. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.
Can crime scene cleaners work at a business?
Often yes. The crew can close off one area, use barriers and plan around staff and customers. Tell the team about opening hours and entrances so the work causes as little disruption as possible.
How long does it take to clear a crime scene?
That is up to law enforcement and the case, and it can vary. Cleanup comes after the release. The length of the cleanup itself depends on the size of the scene and how far fluids spread.
Can I clean a crime scene myself?
It is not advised. Blood and body fluids can carry bloodborne pathogens, and fluids often soak deeper than they look. A professional crew has the gear, disinfectants and waste handling to do it safely.
