Accident and Injury Scene Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Austin, TX
Who cleans up accident scenes?
Emergency crews treat the person and leave. They do not clean. The property owner, employer or insurer needs to call a cleanup crew to remove blood and body fluids and disinfect the area.
Who is responsible, the property owner or the employer?
It depends on the place, the lease and the situation. A property manager, attorney or insurer can say who is responsible in your case. A cleanup team can explain the work either way.
Who cleans up blood after an accident?
A biohazard cleanup team does. Police, firefighters and medics do not. Blood can carry bloodborne pathogens, so a professional crew removes it with protective equipment and disinfects the area.
Does Texas victim compensation cover accident cleanup?
Not regular car accidents. If a crime was involved, the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program may pay up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016, after other sources such as insurance. Call (800) 983-9933.
What should I tell my insurance company?
State the facts plainly: what happened, when and where. Ask what the policy covers and which documents are needed. Photos and receipts help.
Do I need to be at the property?
Usually not. Many callers set up access by phone, through a key holder or property manager. Tell the team who has the keys and whether a business must stay open around the work.
