Ocean County stretches from the Metedeconk River down to Little Egg Harbor, and the calls we get here often come from someone far away: an adult child in another state, a landlord, or the owner of a shore house who just heard the news. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to manage the cleanup yourself. Our technicians handle it with patience and privacy, and we explain each step in plain words.
Services for difficult situations
After trauma or a crime
Accidents, injuries and violent events leave behind blood, bodily fluids and, after an investigation, fingerprint dust. We start only after the authorities release the property, and we coordinate with police and the owner as needed. Then we decontaminate, sanitize and deodorize the area until it's safe to use.
When a death went unnoticed
A death that isn't discovered for some time affects more than the surface of a room. Materials beneath it may need to come out, and odor can travel into nearby spaces. We remove what's affected, disinfect thoroughly and treat the odor, and we check with the family before discarding anything personal.
Blood and other bodily fluids
These are treated as potentially infectious every time. Technicians in protective equipment remove contaminated porous materials, disinfect hard surfaces and package the waste for proper disposal, following OSHA requirements.
Sewage is a biohazard as well
Shore-area storms, failed septic systems and blocked main lines can all push sewage into a home. It carries bacteria, so we approach it with protective gear and full disinfection, not a mop and bucket. Our sewage cleanup page covers sewer, main-line and septic backups.
Privacy, start to finish
The details of your situation stay between us. We're glad to speak with just one point of contact, keep updates short, and answer your questions honestly. Nobody will be rushed into decisions about belongings.
Ocean County towns we serve
Including Lakewood, Toms River, Brick, Jackson, Manchester, Berkeley Township, Point Pleasant and the barrier island towns, with longer drive times to Lacey, Barnegat, Stafford and Little Egg Harbor. For nearby counties, see Monmouth County biohazard cleanup and Middlesex County biohazard cleanup.
If you're out of the area
Many Ocean County homes are second homes or belong to relatives who live elsewhere. If you can't be here, someone 18 or older lets us in on the first visit, and after that we can supply a key box so you don't have to keep arranging access. We'll keep you updated by phone.
Until we arrive
- Call 911 first if someone is injured or a crime may be involved.
- Keep people and pets out of the affected space.
- Don't touch blood, fluids or chemicals, and don't try to clean them.
- Don't move objects that may have been exposed.
Paying for the cleanup
Coverage for biohazard cleanup depends on the policy and the circumstances, and sometimes it applies. We'll provide documentation your insurer may ask for. We send the invoice to your insurance carrier on your behalf, but the invoice is still the homeowner's responsibility. That includes your deductible and anything your carrier doesn't pay.
When a crime caused an injury or death, New Jersey's Victims of Crime Compensation Office may cover part of the cleanup as part of the victim's claim. Families apply to the state themselves.

Ocean County biohazard cleanup questions
I live out of state. Can you handle this without me there? Yes. Someone 18 or older lets us in the first time, and then we can supply a key box. We keep you updated by phone.
How long until you arrive in Toms River or Brick? In northern Ocean County, including Toms River and Brick, we're usually on site within about an hour. The southern end of the county is usually within about 2 hours.
Do you clean shore rentals and condos? Yes. We work in homes and businesses, including rentals and condos, and we can coordinate with a property manager if you ask us to.
What happens to furniture and personal items? Anything that wasn't contaminated is set aside. We talk with you before removing personal items.
Can I just clean up a small amount of blood myself? We don't recommend it. Blood can carry disease, and it often soaks deeper than it looks. Call us instead.
