Tips for Athens families and property owners
Practical advice from the people who do this work every week.
Know your county
McMinn County uses a medical examiner to investigate a sudden death. Once the home is released, cleanup can start.
Ask who's coming
When you call, ask for the tech’s name and arrival time. We’ll always tell you.
Don't pay up front
A reputable cleanup company shouldn’t need a deposit before helping. We never ask for one.
Don't clean it yourself
Blood and fluids can carry disease, and household cleaners don’t kill everything. Close the door and let us handle it.
