It is not recommended. Bloodborne pathogens can survive on surfaces, and household products often miss germs that soaked into porous materials. Professional crews use PPE, sealed containers and disinfectants that match the hazard.
In many cases no. Owners, family members and property managers can set up access with the crew, and the team can work while you are away. Say so when you call if staying elsewhere is easier.
Soaked carpet, padding and mattresses are usually removed and sealed for disposal. Germs and odors sink deep, and disinfectant cannot reach them all. Hard surfaces can usually be cleaned and kept.
Most cleanup is priced by the job instead of by the hour, because the work depends on the scene. Ask what a quote covers, such as labor, materials, waste and travel. That makes it easier to compare companies.
Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team at the start if discretion matters, and it will plan the work around that.
Items that can be cleaned are cleaned, and keepsakes and personal property are set aside for the family. Porous items that fluids soaked into often must be removed. The crew explains each choice before disposing of anything.
