Blood and bodily fluid cleanup in Spokane
A bad fall, a nosebleed that would not stop, an illness at home. When blood or other fluids have soaked into carpet, a mattress or drywall, it is a job for someone with the right protection.

Small spill or bigger job
A few drops on a hard floor can be wiped up with gloves and a household disinfectant. Once fluids have soaked into something porous, they are hard to reach and can carry bloodborne disease.
Washington’s bloodborne pathogens rule (WAC 296-823) applies to employers whose workers may be exposed to blood or other potentially infectious materials, including people who handle regulated waste. It is a good sign of how seriously this material is treated at work.
Where fluids end up
- Carpet pad and the subfloor beneath it
- Mattresses and upholstered chairs
- Grout lines and gaps along baseboards
- Drywall, especially near the floor
- Heating vents and returns in the floor
Questions
Common questions
Is vomit or urine a biohazard?
It can be, especially in quantity or where someone was ill. A company will tell you whether it needs special handling.
Can a business call this line?
Yes. Offices, shops and rental properties in Spokane County can call the same number.
Whenever you are ready
You do not have to sort this out alone
Some families call the same evening. Others call after the service, or after talking with the landlord. Until then, keep the door to the room shut and leave the cleaning to people with the right protective gear.
Speak with a cleanup company
The call goes to an independent company that works in your ZIP code. Describe the room, ask how they would handle it and how they set the price. Nothing is agreed until you say so.
