Post-Accident Cleanup

An accident cleanup is not only a question of legality, but also a psychological capability to handle the situation. It is a matter of biological waste disposal and effective cleanup of the site to avoid any physical or health risks. The transmission of blood-borne pathogens is a critical issue during this situation. Properly disinfecting the site is the goal of an accident cleanup. 

Bio - Cleanse: Post Accident


One is often misguided that an accident cleanup is the job for police services. This is entirely not true. Policemen are not sanitation crews. At the most, they will tow the bodies and wreckage, to the side of the scene, to prevent road blockage for traffic. They will also handle the legal work of the accident that has taken place. However, the onus of thoroughly cleaning the site falls on a professional cleaning service. An accident site requires a professional intervention, rather than being entrusted to a layman or an inexperienced service person, which might not effectively eliminate wastes and the potential risks. 

During an accident, a lot of bleeding occurs along with other bodily discharges such as sweat, urea, faeces, etc. Body parts may be strewn here and there. Depending on the type of accident, even residues left by fire extinguishers add to the burden of an accident site cleanup. Besides, one cannot miss clearing the flotsam and jetsam left behind by the vehicles involved. A lot of glass and metal pieces are bound to be strewn in the surrounding area. Thereby, an accident site, if left unchecked, can pose various dangers to a layman.

The cleanup services approach the site considering that they are treating bio-hazardous waste. Everything should be demarcated, evaluated, cleaned using proper methodologies and disposed safely according to legal norms. A professional accident site cleaner has to undergo various training methods to be able to attend to this kind of situation. He is given training of blood-borne pathogens and dealing with them. He has in hand a written blood-borne pathogen control plan. He is fully geared up with personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles and proper footwear. In most of the cases, he is also well-vaccinated and undergoes medical follow-up after his cleaning services are executed.
