Responders deal with the emergency, collect evidence and make the scene safe. They do not usually clean the space afterward. Once the property is released, the owner or family books decontamination.
A small room or vehicle can take a day or less, while a house or a space with a lot of soft material takes longer. Containment, cleaning and disposal each take time. A team can give a realistic idea once it hears the details.
Vehicles are small, closed spaces, so residue can build up on seats, carpets and vents. Crews use the same careful methods as in a building, and soft materials may need to be removed. Ask whether the team cleans vehicles and how soft materials are treated.
It depends on the policy. Some policies cover certain contamination cleanup, and others exclude drug-related damage. Read your policy and call the insurance company before cleanup starts. Take photos from a safe spot and keep every receipt.
Contaminated materials are sealed in labeled containers and hauled away. Rules vary by location, and some waste may need special handling. Ask the team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end of the job.
Fine powder can rise into the air when it is swept, wiped dry or vacuumed with an ordinary vacuum. Cleanup teams use wet methods and controlled equipment so particles stay down. Agencies such as the CDC advise against disturbing powder.
Crews use controlled methods that keep powder from spreading.
