What should I ask a suicide clean up company before hiring?

Ask how it contains the area, what protective gear it uses and how it disposes of waste. Ask what the price includes and whether you get records for an insurer. Ask how it treats odor and what happens if a smell remains.

How much does suicide cleanup cost?

The price depends on the size of the affected area, whether fluids soaked into flooring and the amount of furniture removed. Odor treatment and access also matter. A team can give a price range after hearing the details. Insurance may cover part of it.
