Owners in Shady Hollow call Shady Hollow Biohazard Cleanup Help when a crime leaves a property unsafe. Cleanup technicians work throughout Travis County, day or night, and explain each step to you and your family or manager.

Only about 6% of homes in Travis County are vacant, so most scenes are found quickly and cleanup starts soon after release. When a death is involved in Travis County, the Travis County Medical Examiner's Office looks into it before the scene is released. Cleanup can follow after that.

1. Assessment after police release

Cleaners walk the property once law enforcement releases it. They map where blood and bodily fluids spread and plan the work.

2. Porous materials next

Carpet, padding, drywall, mattresses and upholstery that fluids reached are usually cut out and removed.

Technicians remove fluids and contaminated materials, then disinfect, deodorize and clear the area of residue.

4. After cleanup

A final inspection confirms the space is ready. The owner receives photos and paperwork for the file.

What Families and Owners Ask About Crime Scene Cleanup in Shady Hollow

What does the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program cover?

It can cover professional cleaning services and supplies, biohazard removal and hazardous waste disposal fees, up to the limit. It does not pay for structural repairs, restoration or replacing stolen or damaged property. Businesses cannot apply.

Can I clean a crime scene myself?

It is not advised. Blood and body fluids can carry bloodborne pathogens, and fluids often soak deeper than they look. A professional crew has the gear, disinfectants and waste handling to do it safely.

Do I need to be at the property?

Usually not. Many owners set up access by phone, with a key holder or property manager. Tell the team who has the keys and whether the building must stay open around the work.

When can crime scene cleanup start?

Only after law enforcement releases the scene. Ask the investigating agency directly. Until then, stay out of the area and do not move or clean anything.

How are crime scenes cleaned?

Crews contain the affected area, remove contaminated materials and clean and disinfect what remains. They treat odor, dispose of waste as regulated medical waste and inspect the result. Protective equipment is worn throughout.

Can a vehicle be cleaned after a crime?

Yes. Cleaners treat seats, carpet, headliners and vents, remove soaked materials and disinfect the cabin. Vehicles are often processed by law enforcement first, so confirm it has been released.
