24/7 trauma scene cleanup in Greater Vancouver
When something like this happens — an unattended death, a violent crime, a traumatic injury — the scene left behind isn’t something most people are equipped to handle. Blood, bodily fluids, and decomposition byproducts are serious biohazards that require certified remediation, not household cleaning products.
We are here to help. To get the quickest response, a phone call is best. You’ll reach a trauma scene dispatcher right here in Vancouver—not a call centre somewhere else. Call 604.598.8887 now for immediate answers, with no obligation.
Not Ready to Call? Start Here
We totally understand. Fill out the form and we’ll get back to you within minutes — day or night. Tell us as much or as little as you’re comfortable sharing.

What happens next
1. You call, we listen.
Our Vancouver-based dispatchers answer—day or night. We’ll ask a few quick questions to understand the situation, walk you through any immediate safety steps, and dispatch a team right away. There’s no obligation, just a confidential conversation to provide you the help you need.
2. A project manager assesses the scene.
When required, and within hours of your initial contact, one of our project managers will come to you and walk the affected area to give you a clear, no-obligation scope of work—what needs to happen, what it will cost, and how long it will take—before any remediation begins.
3. We handle the rest.
Our certified team arrives in unmarked vehicles and gets to work — containing, decontaminating, and restoring the space safely and thoroughly. You don’t need to be there. We’ll keep you informed throughout, and we won’t leave until the area is certified safe.

Operating Since 1998 — Trusted by Local Law Enforcement
We’ve been cleaning trauma and biohazard scenes in the Lower Mainland for over 25 years. Police departments, coroners, property managers, and families call us for the same reason: we show up when we say we will, do the work properly the first time, and don’t need to be managed once we’re on-site.

We work alongside your insurance provider and can help with documentation, scope of work reports, and the claims process — reducing one more thing you have to deal with during an already difficult time.
What Our Crime Scene Cleaners Handle
Unattended Death cleanup
When someone passes away alone and is not discovered right away, the situation requires immediate and careful attention. Our specialists respond quickly to contain and remediate the affected area, protecting both the property and the health of everyone in it.
Suicide cleanup
Losing someone to suicide is devastating. Our team responds with sensitivity and urgency, handling all biohazard remediation so families don’t have to face that burden on top of their grief.
Homicide Cleanup
Homicide scenes involve complex biohazard risks requiring specialized training and equipment. We eliminate all traces of contamination efficiently, so families and property owners can begin to move forward.
Crime Scene Cleanup
Once law enforcement has completed their work, we step in immediately. We coordinate directly with authorities where needed, ensuring the space is safely decontaminated and restored.
You Don't Have to Figure This Out Alone
You shouldn’t have to wait until morning to get answers. Call 604.598.8887 — any hour, anywhere in the Lower Mainland. Real answers. Real help. Right now.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you arrive?
We’re on-site within two hours of your first call, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Real Vancouver dispatchers answer immediately — no call centres, no delays.
Can I clean it up myself?
We strongly advise against it. Trauma scenes contain biological hazards — including bloodborne pathogens — that are invisible to the naked eye and pose serious health risks if not handled with the proper equipment and training. Improper cleanup can also cause cross-contamination to other areas of the property. Our ABRA-certified technicians follow strict safety protocols to thoroughly and safely decontaminate the space.
Is the service confidential?
Absolutely. Our team can arrive in unmarked vehicles and works with absolute discretion. We understand that privacy is important to families and property owners, and we treat every situation with the utmost confidentiality.
Are you certified and trusted by authorities?
Yes. We are ABRA-certified and trusted by both the RCMP and several local police departments, who refer families and property owners to us directly. We are also accredited by the BBB, IICRC, WorkSafe BC, and Police Victim Services of BC — so you can have full confidence in the quality and safety of our work.
Do I need to be present during the cleanup?
It is not necessary. We understand that being on-site may be too difficult for some families. Our team is fully self-sufficient and will handle everything independently, keeping you informed throughout the process. We just need access to the affected area to begin our job.
What happens after the cleanup is complete?
Once the remediation is finished, the area will be fully decontaminated and certified safe. All biohazardous materials are removed and disposed of in compliance with regulatory standards. We’ll walk you through what was done and confirm the space is safe before we leave.
What areas do you serve in the Lower Mainland?
We provide trauma and biohazard cleanup services throughout the entire Lower Mainland, including Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Delta, Langley, Abbotsford, Mission , Coquitlam, Port Moody, Maple Ridge, North Vancouver, and West Vancouver. If you’re unsure whether we cover your area, call us at 604.598.8887 — we’ll do everything possible to help, no matter where you are.
