Suicide Cleanup Cost
Many homeowner’s and business insurance policies cover suicide cleanup expenses, significantly reducing out-of-pocket costs. At ITS Environmental Services, we provide detailed, transparent estimates and assist clients with the insurance claims process to ensure they receive the necessary support.
The cost of suicide cleanup can range from $2,500 to $10,000 or more, depending on several factors such as the extent of the contamination, the size of the affected area, and the specific materials that need to be cleaned or disposed of. Larger or more severely affected areas, the presence of biohazardous materials like blood and bodily fluids, and the geographical location can all influence the cost.

What happens when a dead body is left unattended?
When a body is left unattended for days, weeks, or even months, it undergoes natural decomposition, which can lead to the release of various biological fluids and gases. This process creates an environment that can be hazardous to health due to the presence of pathogens and strong odors.
Is a dead body a biohazard?
Decomposition presents various issues and inherent dangers concerning blood and bodily fluids. Strong, unpleasant, and sometimes noxious odors are also common under these circumstances. Detection and eradication of fluids is necessary to return affected areas to their previous condition, making them safe for re-occupancy.
