Why It Matters in North Hollywood

Decomposition releases bacteria and gases, and fluids can reach subflooring and units below. Cleaning only the surface usually leaves odor and contamination behind, which can affect resale, rental and health.

Biohazard cleanup in North Hollywood is regulated work. Under California's Trauma Scene Waste Management Act, trauma scene waste must be handled by registered practitioners, and blood-soaked materials cannot simply go out with the trash.
