Quick Answer
What is Crime Scene Cleanup?
Crime scene cleanup is the professional removal and decontamination of biological hazards — blood, bodily fluids, and tissue — from a property after a violent crime, accident, or death. Unlike regular cleaning, certified remediation requires OSHA-trained technicians using hospital-grade disinfectants, full PPE, and ATP-verified clearance testing. In Michigan, property owners — not law enforcement — are responsible for cleanup once investigators release the scene.

After police and investigators release a crime scene, the cleanup responsibility falls on the property owner — not law enforcement. 911 Bio Clean provides certified, professional crime scene cleanup throughout Oakland County, Michigan.

What's Included
Health Risks — Why Immediate Response Matters
Bloodborne Pathogens
Blood and bodily fluids can carry HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and other dangerous pathogens.
Airborne Contamination
Dried biological material becomes airborne and can be inhaled, causing serious respiratory illness.
Cross-Contamination
Without proper containment, biohazards spread rapidly to unaffected areas of the property.
Structural Damage
Biological fluids penetrate porous materials — floors, walls, subfloors — causing long-term damage if not treated quickly.
OSHA Violations
Untrained cleanup of biohazardous materials is illegal without proper PPE and licensing under OSHA standards.
Psychological Risk
Exposure to traumatic scenes without professional support can compound emotional trauma for family members.

Emergency Dispatch
Call (810) 228-9282 and we dispatch a certified team within 1-2 hours, 24/7.
Scene Assessment
We assess the full extent of contamination and create a thorough remediation plan.
PPE & Containment

Biohazard Removal
All contaminated materials — carpet, padding, drywall, furniture — are safely removed and disposed of per regulations.
Deep Decontamination
All surfaces are treated with hospital-grade disinfectants and antimicrobial agents, including structural elements.

Final Testing & Inspection
ATP testing confirms zero biological contamination before the job is considered complete.
What Makes Our Crime Scene Cleanup Different
Specific capabilities that set our crime scene cleanup service apart in Oakland County.
ATP Testing Standard — Not Just Visual Inspection
We use adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing — the same verification standard used in hospitals — to scientifically confirm zero biological contamination before we leave. Other companies do a visual check. We provide documented proof.
We Handle the Insurance Claim End-to-End
From first call to closed claim, we manage all documentation, chain-of-custody records, photos, and direct billing to your insurer. Most Oakland County crime scene clients pay $0 out of pocket.
Oakland County Sheriff & Police Coordination
We coordinate directly with Oakland County Sheriff and all local police departments — Troy PD, Bloomfield Hills PD, Pontiac PD, and others — to begin work the moment investigators release the scene.
Fingerprint Powder, Luminol & Chemical Residue Removal
We remove all investigative residues left behind by forensic teams — fingerprint powder, luminol staining, and chemical sprays — not just biological materials. Your property is restored completely.
Structural Material Removal When Required
Blood and biological fluids penetrate carpet, carpet padding, hardwood subfloor, and drywall. We remove and properly dispose of contaminated structural materials as required — not just surface-clean them — ensuring no hidden contamination remains.
Chain-of-Custody Documentation
We maintain complete chain-of-custody documentation for all biohazardous waste removed from your property — required by Michigan regulations and expected by insurance carriers. Our paperwork is accepted by all major Oakland County insurers.

Michigan Insurance Carriers We Work With

Michigan Law & Property Owner Responsibilities
What Oakland County property owners need to know about biohazard cleanup obligations in Michigan.
Who Is Responsible for Cleanup?
In Michigan, law enforcement and first responders do not clean biological contamination. Once investigators release a scene, cleanup responsibility falls entirely on the property owner.
This applies to crimes scenes, suicides, unattended deaths, and all biohazard situations. The Oakland County Sheriff's Office and local police departments will not perform or arrange cleanup.
Landlords are also legally responsible for cleanup in rental properties before allowing new tenants to occupy a unit where a biohazard event occurred.
OSHA & Federal Regulations
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 (Bloodborne Pathogen Standard) requires that anyone handling blood or potentially infectious materials use proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow strict exposure control procedures.
Attempting to clean a biohazard scene without proper training, PPE, and certification is not just dangerous — it may violate federal OSHA standards, particularly for landlords, property managers, and employers.
All 911 Bio Clean technicians are trained and certified to comply with OSHA, EPA, and Michigan DEQ regulations.
Michigan Disclosure Requirements
Michigan does not currently require sellers to disclose that a death occurred in a home. However, the Michigan Seller's Disclosure Act requires disclosure of known material defects — which could include structural damage caused by delayed cleanup.
Professional remediation with ATP-clearance documentation protects property owners by providing objective proof that a property was professionally restored to a safe condition. This documentation can be critical if a property is later sold or re-rented.
Biohazardous Waste Disposal in Michigan
Michigan law requires that biohazardous waste — blood-soaked materials, sharps, contaminated structural materials — be collected, transported, and disposed of by a licensed medical waste handler using DOT-compliant red biohazard bags and vehicles.
Placing biohazardous materials in regular trash or dumpsters is illegal in Michigan and can result in fines. 911 Bio Clean handles all regulated waste disposal as part of every job — all materials are transported to a licensed disposal facility.
