Crime Scene and Trauma Cleanup in Las Vegas: When You Need Someone Who Understands
The police have finished their investigation. The coroner has left. The yellow tape comes down. And you’re left standing there realizing that someone needs to clean up what’s been left behind.
This is the reality that most people never think about until they’re living it. Crime scenes, suicides, unattended deaths, violent incidents. These situations leave behind more than emotional trauma. They leave behind blood, bodily fluids, tissue, and biohazards that pose serious health risks and require specialized knowledge to remediate properly.
Mold Eliminators has provided crime scene and trauma cleanup services throughout Las Vegas and Clark County since 1996. We’ve worked with grieving families, property owners facing unimaginable circumstances, and law enforcement agencies who trust our discretion and expertise. Our team understands that you’re dealing with one of the worst moments of your life, and we treat every situation with the compassion and professionalism it deserves.
This isn’t work that family members should attempt. It isn’t work that standard cleaning services can legally or safely perform. Crime scene cleanup requires OSHA-compliant procedures, specialized equipment, and technicians trained to handle bloodborne pathogens and infectious materials while maintaining complete sensitivity to the human tragedy involved.
Specialized Trauma and Biohazard Cleanup Services
We’re not a carpet cleaning company that dabbles in biohazard work. We’re not a fire and water restoration company that offers blood cleanup as an afterthought. Mold Eliminators is a fully licensed, insured, and certified biohazard remediation company that specializes in the most difficult situations you can face.
Our certified personnel provide safe, personal, and courteous service when you need it most. We arrive on time, we stay until the job is complete, and we present you with a Certificate of Remediation that documents your property is safe to inhabit once again.
Bodily Fluid and Trauma Cleanup
Cleaning up blood and bodily fluids is dangerous work. Period. After a suicide, homicide, trauma scene, industrial accident, or unattended natural death, the last thing friends, family members, or employers should have to do is clean it up themselves.
Blood carries pathogens that can transmit HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and numerous other infectious diseases. Bodily fluids seep into flooring, absorb into walls, and contaminate areas far beyond what’s visible. Our professionally trained team handles every aspect of trauma cleanup using OSHA 29CFR1910.1030 protocols that protect both our technicians and you from exposure.
We’ve cleaned hundreds of trauma scenes throughout Las Vegas. We know what we’re looking for, where contamination hides, and how to completely eliminate biohazards while treating your situation with appropriate sensitivity.
Home, Business, and Automobile Disinfection
A crime doesn’t have to occur for your home, business, or vehicle to become contaminated with dangerous pathogens. Modern homes are built tighter and more airtight than ever before. This energy efficiency comes with a downside. Viruses and bacteria can accumulate in air vents, furnaces, HVAC systems, and even the dust on top of appliances.
We provide comprehensive disinfection services for residential properties, commercial buildings, and vehicles using hospital-grade disinfectants and EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments. Whether you’re dealing with infectious disease exposure, need deep sanitization after illness, or want professional disinfection for peace of mind, our team handles it properly.
Methamphetamine Lab Decontamination
The labs created to produce methamphetamine do more than create a horrible drug. They produce toxic waste. Cooking meth involves highly hazardous chemicals including anhydrous ammonia, red phosphorus, lithium, ether, and dozens of other dangerous substances. These chemicals contaminate walls, ceilings, floors, ventilation systems, and every porous surface in the structure.
Properties that housed meth labs remain dangerous long after the lab is shut down. Children, new tenants, and property owners face serious health risks from residual contamination. Nevada law requires proper decontamination before properties can be legally occupied again.
Our team follows Nevada Department of Health and Human Services protocols for meth lab remediation. We test contamination levels, remove affected materials, deep clean all surfaces, and conduct post-remediation testing to verify the property meets state safety standards. You receive full documentation that the property has been properly decontaminated.
Hoarding Disorder and OCD Clean Outs
We understand the stresses involved in hoarding situations. These aren’t just messy houses. Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition, and properties affected by severe hoarding often contain serious biohazards including human waste, animal feces, decomposed food, pest infestations, and dangerous mold growth.
Those with hoarding disorder often live with trash, human feces, old household items, rodents, and droppings. These properties present numerous health risks that professionals must address to ensure the location becomes safe and sanitary again.
We manage our services in a professional and strictly confidential manner. Our team includes personnel experienced with biohazardous waste cleanup, working with families dealing with mental health issues, and coordinating with insurance companies (who often cover this type of remediation, see our FAQ for more details).
We don’t judge. We don’t shame. We understand that hoarding disorder is a complex situation that requires compassion alongside technical expertise. Our goal is restoring the property to safe, habitable condition while treating everyone involved with dignity and respect.
Gross Filth and Severe Property Contamination
Some properties reach levels of contamination that go beyond ordinary cleaning. Gross filth situations involve layers of waste, biological contamination, pest infestations, and hazardous materials that have accumulated over months or years.
Standard cleaning companies won’t touch these properties. They lack the training, equipment, and legal certifications required to handle biohazardous waste. Our team has cleaned some of the most challenging properties in Las Vegas and knows how to safely remediate even the worst situations.
We remove all contaminated materials, treat all surfaces with medical-grade disinfectants, eliminate odors at the molecular level, and restore properties to habitable condition. You receive a Certificate of Remediation documenting that the property meets all health and safety standards.
Infectious Disease Disinfection Services
Infectious disease outbreaks require specialized disinfection protocols. Whether you’re dealing with influenza, norovirus, COVID-19, or other contagious pathogens, our team provides comprehensive disinfection services for homes, businesses, schools, medical facilities, and other properties.
We follow CDC guidelines and use EPA-registered disinfectants proven effective against specific pathogens. Our services include surface disinfection, air purification, and verification testing to ensure complete elimination of infectious materials.

Our Complete Remediation Process
We follow strict protocols that ensure complete remediation while maintaining sensitivity to your situation.
1. Immediate Response and Assessment
When you call Mold Eliminators, we respond quickly. Our team arrives in unmarked vehicles to protect your privacy. We assess the extent of contamination, photograph everything for insurance documentation, and develop a comprehensive remediation plan.
2. Containment and Safety Protocols
Before any cleaning begins, we establish physical barriers to prevent cross-contamination. Our technicians suit up in full personal protective equipment including respirators, biohazard suits, gloves, and protective eyewear. The work area becomes a completely controlled environment.
3. Removal of Contaminated Materials
Porous materials that have absorbed blood, bodily fluids, or chemical contamination cannot be adequately cleaned. They must be removed and disposed of as regulated medical waste. We carefully remove and bag all contaminated materials following strict protocols for biohazardous waste disposal.
4. Deep Cleaning and Disinfection
After removing contaminated materials, we perform intensive cleaning and disinfection of all remaining surfaces. We use hospital-grade disinfectants proven effective against bloodborne pathogens, followed by EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments. Equipment decontamination is performed on all tools and machinery used during the process.
5. Odor Remediation
Trauma scenes, decomposition, hoarding situations, and meth labs create persistent odors that standard cleaning cannot eliminate. We use professional-grade deodorization equipment including ozone generators, hydroxyl generators, and thermal fogging systems. These treatments neutralize odor molecules at the molecular level.
6. Final Inspection and Certification
Once remediation is complete, we conduct a thorough final inspection. You receive a Certificate of Remediation that documents the work performed and confirms your property meets all safety standards. This certification is required by insurance companies and provides documentation that the property is legally safe.
Insurance Coverage for Trauma and Biohazard Cleanup
Most homeowner, auto, and commercial property insurance policies cover the costs of our services, disposal fees, and restoration of residential or business property to pre-loss condition.
Many people are shocked to learn that insurance typically covers crime scene cleanup, trauma remediation, unattended death cleanup, and even hoarding situations. Coverage usually falls under provisions for sudden and accidental loss.
We work directly with insurance companies throughout the claims process. Our team provides detailed documentation, coordinates with adjusters, and handles all the paperwork. We’ve worked with virtually every major insurance carrier operating in Nevada and know exactly what they require for claim approval.
If you’re paying out of pocket, we provide transparent pricing upfront and offer payment options to help you manage costs. Regardless of your financial situation, we find ways to help you get the professional cleanup services you need.
Working with Las Vegas Law Enforcement and Agencies
We’ve built strong relationships throughout Las Vegas with agencies that regularly deal with trauma situations. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, Henderson Police, North Las Vegas Police, and Clark County Sheriff’s Office all refer families to our services.
We understand crime scene protocols and never interfere with ongoing investigations. Our team waits for official scene release before beginning any cleanup work. We coordinate with detectives when necessary and maintain complete confidentiality about everything we observe.
Privacy, Discretion, and Compassion
How we conduct ourselves at your property matters as much as the technical quality of our work.
We arrive in completely unmarked vehicles. Nothing identifies our trucks as crime scene cleanup or biohazard remediation services. Our technicians dress professionally without company uniforms that advertise our specialized services. We speak quietly and work efficiently.
Every team member receives training not just in technical cleanup procedures but in working with grieving families and trauma survivors. We understand that this may be the worst day of your life. Our job is to handle the impossible task that you shouldn’t have to face, and we do it with genuine compassion and respect.
Las Vegas Crime Scene Cleanup Challenges
| Las Vegas Factor |
Impact on Crime Scene Cleanup |
| Extreme Summer Heat |
Accelerates decomposition dramatically; increases urgency of response and contamination spread |
| Tourism and Transient Population |
Higher incidence of incidents in hotels, motels, and short-term rentals requiring rapid, discreet response |
| 24/7 City Culture |
Incidents occur at all hours; immediate response needed regardless of time |
| Older Building Stock |
Porous materials in pre-1990 construction absorb biological materials more deeply |
| Gaming and Entertainment Industry |
High-profile locations require extra discretion and rapid completion to protect business reputation |
Desert heat during Las Vegas summers creates urgent situations. When temperatures exceed 110 degrees, decomposition progresses exponentially faster than in moderate climates. This makes rapid professional response absolutely critical.
Our tourism economy means that trauma situations frequently occur in commercial lodging properties. We’ve worked with every major casino property on the Strip, downtown hotels, and hundreds of smaller lodging businesses throughout the valley. Property managers know they can count on us for rapid, professional, completely confidential service.
