What should I ask a suicide clean up company before hiring?
Ask how it contains the area, what protective gear it uses and how it disposes of waste. Ask what the price includes and whether you get records for an insurer. Ask how it treats odor and what happens if a smell remains.
I found someone at home. What do I do first?
