Do carpets and furniture have to be thrown away?
Porous items that absorbed fluids, such as carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstery, are usually removed. Hard items can often be cleaned and disinfected. The team explains which is which before work begins.
I smell something and I am afraid of what I will find. What should I do?
Do not go in alone. Call 911 or ask for a welfare check. Wait for the authorities to enter first. Cleanup comes later, once the scene is released. If you are struggling with what you have seen, 988 offers support by call or text.
Will the odor come back after cleaning?

Is a vehicle smell treated the same way?

What should I ask a death odor removal company before hiring?
