Answers About Clearing a Home After a Loss in Eldorado, TX
What if there is hoarding or a lot of clutter?
A cluttered home takes more time, and the sorting needs even more care. Crews set up safe paths, look for hazards and sort slowly. Ask the team what extra steps apply to dense contents.
Will important papers and keepsakes be protected?
Yes, you can ask how the team protects them. Many teams set aside papers, photos and jewelry first and return them to the family. Tell the team what to look for. Photos and papers are usually found early, before large items are moved.
What safety standards apply if biohazard cleanup is needed?
Workers who work with blood and body fluids are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. Ask any team how it disposes of waste.
Is the home safe to enter after a death?
Most are, but not all. If the person died alone and was found after some time, fluids can soak into floors and furniture. Spoiled food, mold, pests and needles can also be present. If you are unsure, do not clear the area yourself.
Who decides what is kept and what is removed?
The family or the person handling the estate decides. The team follows those directions and should confirm them with one point of contact. For legal questions about authority over a home and its contents, ask an attorney.
Does the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pay for any of this?
Only when the death involved a crime, and only for crime scene clean-up. The program pays up to $2,250 for crimes after July 14, 2016. Insurance is used first, and claims must be filed within three years. Questions go to the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933.
