Who Cleans Up Blood After an Accident or Death?

For a minor household cut on a nonporous surface, ordinary household cleaning may be enough. Larger incidents, traumatic events and contamination of absorbent materials are different.

What to know

Substantial blood cleanup is commonly handled by specialized biohazard or trauma cleanup providers because the affected area may extend beyond what can be seen at the surface.

When to consider professional help

Professional cleanup may be appropriate when contamination is substantial, involves an unattended death or traumatic event, reaches porous materials, or cannot be safely assessed by the property owner.
