Homicide Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Roxborough Park, Philadelphia, PA

Is the family expected to clean the scene?

No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.

Can a business or vehicle be cleaned after a homicide?

Yes. Crews clean offices, shops and vehicles. For a vehicle, law enforcement usually processes it first, so confirm it has been released. Businesses can often plan work around staff and customers.

What paperwork is needed for the claim?

Expect to supply a bill or receipt, itemized costs and an insurance declaration page or a statement of no insurance. Ask the cleanup crew what paperwork you get. There is no fee to apply, and no lawyer is required.

What should I tell the insurance company?

Say what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and which documents are needed. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.

Does homeowners insurance cover homicide cleanup?

Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain cases. Renters policies often cover cleanup but not the building. Call your insurer before work starts and ask what applies.

Is there emotional support available?

Many families find support through victim services, counselors and faith communities. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 anytime. The cleanup crew focuses on the property so you can focus on healing.
