Biohazard Cleanup in Montgomery: What It Is and What It Covers

The safe disposal, removal and disinfection of bodily fluids, blood, tissue and other hazardous materials after an accident, crime, death, sewage backup or hoarding situation is biohazard cleanup.

Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup is more involved than deep cleaning. Technicians use personal protective equipment, locate every contaminated place, remove porous material that disinfection cannot save and treat affected areas until each reaches a livable condition.

Biological matter that may cause illness is considered a biohazard. The usual examples in homes or businesses are:

  • Bodily fluids and blood, whether dried or fresh
  • Decomposition after an unattended death
  • Human and animal waste along with urine and vomit
  • Category 3 black water, including raw sewage
  • Needles, sharps and medical waste
  • Residue from fentanyl, meth and drug labs

First steps

What to Do First After a Death, Crime or Biohazard Spill in Montgomery County

This is a one-time experience for most people. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. If a person is hurt or has died, call 911. Wait for first responders, law enforcement and the medical examiner or coroner to release the area before beginning cleanup.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Shut the door, and do not let pets or children enter. Keep your feet away from blood and fluids.
  3. Leave the cleanup to professionals. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
  4. Call your insurance company. Tell your insurer about the loss, ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered and record your claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.
Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Greater Montgomery, Step by Step

Each job follows the same safe biohazard cleanup process, beginning with your call and ending with the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    The caller describes what occurred. Technicians examine and photograph the area, then confirm the work scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Every surface is cleaned and treated with EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectant.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    Where needed, ATP testing helps check that the space has returned to a livable condition. You also get photographs and documentation for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    Rebuilding areas where drywall or floors were taken out can be done by your contractor or the insurer's vendor.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Greater Montgomery Businesses and Homes

The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.

Why Regular Household Cleaners Are Not Enough

Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.

Insurance and who pays

Does Insurance Cover Biohazard Cleanup in Alabama? Who Pays?

Frequently, yes. Biohazard cleanup following a sudden incident, including a death, sewage backup or crime, is commonly covered by renters and homeowners policies, less your deductible.

Responsibilities for Landlords and Property Owners in Montgomery County

Owners or property managers usually pay for and organize cleanup inside rental units and shared areas.

Alabama Crime Victim Compensation

Victims of violent crime can ask the Alabama Crime Victims Compensation Commission, which lists crime scene cleanup among its expense categories, whether cleanup costs can be included in a compensation claim. Insurance is usually checked first.

The Estate and the Deceased Person's Next of Kin

The estate can often cover death cleanup expenses. The executor or a family member usually takes care of this.

Biohazard Cleanup Coverage for Homeowners and Renters

Insurance generally covers events that are both sudden and accidental. Long-term neglect and hoarding are generally excluded. Speak with your insurance company before cleanup begins.

Safety of Cleaning Up Your Own Biohazard Spill in Alabama

You can clean a few fresh blood drops from a hard, non-porous surface. Put on disposable gloves, apply an EPA-registered disinfectant for the entire contact time, and seal the used cloths and gloves in a bag before discarding them.

Do not clean a larger spill yourself. Fluid-soaked drywall, wood, carpeting or mattresses require removal, not surface wiping, and must be managed as regulated waste. Professional biohazard cleaners also spare families from cleaning the place where a loved one died.

Rules in plain English

Alabama and Montgomery County Biohazard Removal Regulations

OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard

Federal rule 29 CFR 1910.1030 sets requirements for protective equipment, training and safe handling when work may expose employees to blood.

EPA-registered disinfectants

Use disinfectants with an EPA registration number for biohazards and maintain a wet surface for the contact time stated on the label.

Alabama Medical Waste Rules

Alabama treats soaked materials from a biohazard scene as medical waste when they are saturated to the point of dripping blood. The Alabama Department of Environmental Management's rules control packing, transport and treatment, so it cannot go in household trash.

Medical Examiner or Coroner and Police Scene Release in Montgomery County

Alabama uses a county coroner system, with no statewide medical examiner, and the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences performs autopsies and supports death investigations for coroners. Cleanup starts after police or the coroner release the scene.
