What Indiana families should know
Cleanup is the family’s or owner’s responsibility. In Indiana, the county coroner investigates unattended deaths, and police handle crime scenes. Neither one cleans the home afterward. Once the property is released, the family, landlord or owner arranges professional death cleanup or crime scene cleanup.
Indiana victim compensation can pay for crime scene cleanup. Since July 1, 2022, crime scene cleanup has been an eligible expense under Indiana’s Violent Crime Victim Compensation program, with awards up to $15,000. Claims go through the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, usually within 180 days, and we provide the itemized invoice and photos your claim needs.
Meth and drug lab properties follow state rules. Indiana regulates drug lab cleanup under 410 IAC 38, administered by the Indiana Department of Health. A property on the state’s clandestine lab list has to be tested and certified by a state-certified Qualified Inspector before the local health department will release it.
Most homeowners insurance covers it. Death cleanup and biohazard cleanup are usually covered as sudden, accidental damage, and we bill your insurance company directly.

The family or the property owner arranges death cleanup once the county coroner releases the home. The coroner investigates the death but doesn’t clean, so a professional biohazard cleanup company handles anything involving body fluids.
