When families and loved ones are faced with an untimely death by suicide or an attempted suicide, the challenges ahead seem unimaginable. Many families are left with not only the overwhelming emotional distress, but they may also be left with areas in a home or vehicle that need immediate assistance in cleanup and disposal. HAZstat is a professional cleanup service that specializes in the cleanup of blood, death cleaning, murder cleanup, suicide cleanup, crime scene cleanup and homicide cleanup in the Orlando metro area and throughout Florida.
When suicide cleanup services are needed in a home, or on a property knowing what to expect can be an important step in the suicide scene cleanup process. Once a trauma cleaning provider of your choice has been employed they may ask you to leave the scene. The main reasons are for safety and not wanting to add any more emotional stress to your tragedy. In the case of a self-inflicted gunshot on a chair, sofa or bed mattress these items may need to be removed from the residence if a thorough cleaning cannot be completed.

This is a question that may be asked when you meet with the biohazard cleanup service provider.
