How much does drug paraphernalia cleanup cost?
The price depends on the number of rooms and items, how much soft material must go, odor treatment, travel and access. A cleanup team can give a real price after hearing the details and should explain what is included before work begins.
How do you clean up drug residue?
Crews wear protective gear, remove sharps and loose items, and then clean hard surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectants. Porous materials such as carpet, padding or upholstery that took in residue may be removed. The team can explain what applies to your space.
What should I do if someone is unresponsive?
Call 911 right away. Cleanup can wait. After the emergency is over and the space is released, a cleanup team can handle the items and residue left behind.
What if someone is stuck by a needle?
Wash the area with soap and water and get medical care right away. Call 911 in an emergency. Poison Control can answer exposure questions. Tell the doctor what happened and where the needle was found, if you know.
Do I need to be there during the work?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call. Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle.
Can I clean up after a family member myself?
