- Cleaning of equipment, tools and furniture that can be safely kept and reused

How Crews Decontaminate a Custer Property From Start to Finish
2. Contain and protect
Crew members put on protective gear for skin, eyes and lungs. The work area is closed off, and people and pets are kept out.
3. Take out, scrub down
Contaminated items leave in sealed bags, and the remaining surfaces are scrubbed. This clears the film that can protect germs.
4. Treat air and finish up
Odor sources are removed and the air is treated. Photos and notes are shared so the owner or insurer has a clear record.

What Custer Property Owners Ask About Decontamination
Does insurance cover decontamination?
Sometimes. Some homeowners and renters policies cover cleanup after a covered event, and some exclude certain causes. Call the insurance company before work starts, take photos and keep every receipt. Ask the team whether it can supply paperwork.
Will the neighbors know?
Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.
Can a car or truck be decontaminated?
Yes. Crews remove soiled mats, seat covers and cushions, clean the cabin and disinfect seats, belts, door pulls and vents. Fleet managers and rideshare drivers often call after a medical event or a mess that cannot wait.
How long does decontamination take?
A small area with hard surfaces can take a few hours. Larger or more complicated spaces, heavy odor or many porous items take longer. The crew can offer a better timeline after seeing the site.
Does decontamination remove odors?
It does when the source is removed. Smells from sewage, fluids or decay live in porous materials and subfloors, so crews take those out and treat the air. Air fresheners cover a smell for only a short time.
What is biohazard decontamination?
Biohazard decontamination is the process of cleaning and disinfecting a space after blood, bodily fluids, sewage or similar material. Crews wear protective gear, remove items that cannot be saved and apply a disinfectant matched to the germs involved. The goal is a space safe to use again.
