Unattended Death Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Juneau city and, AK
Who is responsible for cleaning up after a death?
Police and the medical examiner do not clean. The property owner, the family or the estate books and pays for cleanup. In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord or an attorney can explain the details.
What is considered an unattended death?
An unattended death is one where no one was with the person and they were not found for some time. It may be a few days or much longer. The term describes how the death was discovered, not the cause. Cleanup is needed because body fluids and odor may remain.
Can the home be cleaned out for sale after the biohazard work?
Yes. Many families book an estate cleanout once the affected area is clean and safe. The crew sorts, removes and cleans the rest of the home. Ask whether one team can do both parts so access and timing stay simple.
What should I not do after finding a death at home?
Call 911 first and do not touch anything. Do not try to clean fluids yourself, because they can carry germs. Do not vacuum or use household bleach. Wait for the authorities, then ask a cleanup team how to proceed.
I found someone at home. What do I do first?
Call 911 and leave the room. Do not touch the person or anything around them. Once the authorities have finished and released the property, a cleanup team can take over. Be gentle with yourself. If you feel overwhelmed, 988 offers support by call or text.
How long does death cleanup take?
It depends on the size of the affected area and how far fluids spread. A small area can be finished in a day, while a larger one or one with odor in the structure takes longer. A cleanup team can explain the timeline after hearing the details.
