Crime Scene Cleanup explained
Crime Scene Cleanup in Pima County: What It Is and What It Covers
Crime scene cleanup is the process of making a property safe to use following a violent crime. Tissue, body fluids, contaminated materials and blood are taken away, and the area is then disinfected and cleared of odor. Forensic cleaning and trauma scene cleanup are other names for this work.
The investigation comes before any cleaning. Detectives, police and the medical examiner remove the deceased and collect evidence, but cleanup is not part of their role. After release, responsibility for the scene passes to the family, landlord or property owner.
Every trace of blood is treated as infectious by a forensic clean up crew. These workers are also known as forensic or crime scene cleaners. They follow its path, take out materials that cannot be disinfected, treat and clean all surfaces, then transport hazardous material according to medical waste rules. This complete work is a type of biohazard remediation.
- Tissue, bodily fluids and blood across any surface
- Fingerprint powder, luminol and chemical residue
- Carpet, padding, furnishings and drywall that are soaked
- Smells affecting vents, indoor air and soft materials

First steps
What You Should Do When a Crime Scene in Pima County Is Released
Before cleanup technicians get there, your early actions can affect health, the insurance claim and what the work ultimately costs:
Call (888) 351-0904- Confirm the release. Have the investigating officer or detective verify that you may take control of the scene.
- Do not enter the affected area. Shut the door, prevent children and animals from entering, and avoid stepping in blood.

Step by step
How the Crime Scene Cleaning Process Works in Greater Tucson
Differences between crime scenes do not change the safe order of the work. Often described as the remediation process, crime scene cleanup proceeds step by step, beginning with the first walk-through and ending at final inspection.
Crime Scene Assessment
You or your representative walks through the area with technicians, who document it in photos and settle the scope before cleaning begins.
Containment and Protective Gear
Technicians put on full personal protective equipment, then contain the affected area using plastic sheeting and negative air.
Removal of Contaminated Materials
Any saturated carpet, drywall, furniture, padding or mattress is cut out and secured in sealed medical waste bags.
Crime Scene Cleaning and Disinfection
After cleaning each surface, technicians apply a hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant and observe its complete contact time.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
Technicians inspect HVAC vents and target the odor source using ozone, hydroxyl generators or air scrubbers.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
Sealed containers go to a permitted medical waste facility with the paperwork that tracks them.
Final Inspection and ATP Testing
Surfaces can be checked with ATP testing, and you get photos and records for your insurance claim.
Restoration After Crime Scene Cleanup
A contractor you choose or your insurer's vendor can replace any drywall and floors removed during cleaning.

Health and safety
Crime Scene Health Risks: Why Crime Scene Cleaning Is Not a DIY Job
Blood and bodily fluids may pose serious health risks. Visible contamination is usually only part of what is present.
The Emotional Toll on Families
You may find it deeply difficult to clean where someone close to you was harmed. For that reason alone, many households turn to professional crime scene cleaners.
Contaminated Materials Left Behind
Grout may hold blood that also seeps below trim and penetrates carpeting, pad and subfloor. Odor and bacteria may return when hidden material remains after a surface wipe.
Bloodborne Pathogens at Crime Scenes
HIV and the hepatitis B and C viruses may be carried in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days, including when blood appears dry.
Can you clean it yourself? For a few drops of blood that are fresh and limited to a non-porous hard surface, use gloves plus an EPA-registered disinfectant. Call for professional cleanup if the amount has no visible boundary or has entered carpet, textiles, drywall or wood.

Odor and air
Improving Air Quality With Crime Scene Odor Removal in Arizona
The source must be removed before the odor can be addressed. Spraying fragrance on tissue or blood masks the smell for just a few days.
After the contaminated materials are gone, the cleanup team can use HEPA air scrubbers to capture particles, hydroxyl generators that are safe to run while people are present, and ozone treatment in empty rooms for stubborn odor. Thermal fogging reaches odor in fabrics and wall cavities, and HVAC ductwork is checked so smell does not travel to other rooms.
