Important: If there is an active emergency, immediate danger, or a newly discovered death that has not been reported, contact the appropriate emergency authorities first.
Assess conditions before removal
Removing items without understanding the contamination can spread affected material or create additional exposure.
Biohazard conditions can change the cleanup
The presence of biological waste may require a different approach than ordinary junk removal or decluttering.
Discuss the property
Call for local help with a hoarding situation involving suspected biohazards.
