How To Handle Biohazardous Waste

6/2/2020 (Permalink)

It is extremely important to call in a trained and certified biohazard cleaning company to handle any biohazard cleanup.

Exposure to biological and chemical contaminants can pose serious health consequences, and a failure to properly remove such substances can contribute to unhealthy and dangerous environments. Here at SERVPRO, we are trained to safely clean up and remove hazardous substances and dispose of them properly in accordance with OSHA and health regulations. We are equipped with the necessary safety apparatus and cleaning products, and we help transform any unsafe environment back into clean, safe homes, and offices.

Safety Equipment. Cleaning extreme situations requires the use of personal safety wear to protect cleaners from exposure to bloodborne diseases, dangerous chemicals, and infection. The average person does not possess this type of equipment.

Cleaning Equipment. Thorough cleaning of locations affected by biological hazards calls for specialized equipment and cleaning solutions. Certified bio-remediation companies use advanced equipment and effective disinfectant solutions that will leave the client sites free of biohazards. Our staff are trained to use this equipment to remove all hazardous materials from your home – many of which you can’t even see.

Disposal. Objects that have come into contact with human or animal blood or waste - such as needles, carpets, mattresses, and clothing - should be disposed of properly so they don’t pose a health threat to the public. We understand the requirements for transporting and disposing of biohazard waste appropriately.

Difficult Scenes. The work involved in cleaning up after a crime or trauma is mentally, physically, and emotionally difficult for those connected to the victim to handle. Our team has years of experience working in this taxing environment.

Peace of Mind. Use of a professional biohazard cleanup company will leave you with complete assurance that your family and friends are safe from any harm posed by the biological hazards once present in your home or business.
