After law enforcement leaves, property owners often ask who pays for crime scene cleanup.
In Florida, the responsibility usually falls on the property owner — but insurance frequently covers professional remediation.
Homeowners and renters
Homeowner policies often cover biohazard cleanup as part of property damage from a covered loss.
Renters may have coverage through renters insurance.
Landlords typically carry commercial or dwelling policies.
BioClear Pros documents the scene for adjusters and explains what records we provide.
Landlords and property managers
When a tenant is involved, the lease and policy determine coverage.
Property managers in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach County should call us immediately.
Fast response prevents further damage and code violations.
When insurance does not apply
If a policy excludes certain losses or coverage limits are reached, families may pay out of pocket.
We provide transparent scopes before work begins whenever possible.

What government does not cover
Police and fire departments do not clean private property after investigations.
County coroners remove the deceased but do not remediate the scene.
Professional crime scene cleaners are required for safe restoration.
Florida Crime Victims Compensation
When a violent crime is involved, victims or families may qualify for assistance through the Florida Crime Victims Compensation Program.
