Expect to supply a bill or receipt, itemized costs and an insurance declaration page or a statement of no insurance. Ask the cleanup crew what paperwork you get. There is no fee to apply, and no lawyer is required.

Do I need to be there during cleanup?

No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.

Can a business or vehicle be cleaned after a homicide?

Yes. Crews clean offices, shops and vehicles. For a vehicle, law enforcement usually processes it first, so confirm it has been released. Businesses can often plan work around staff and customers.
