| Will you give information on the telephone?
Yes. Call me Eddie Evans. I answer my own suicide cleanup business telephone every day of the year at any hour. Exceptions arise when I'm near or between mountains while traveling. When I'm in an airplane. When I'm near a loud machine. When I cannot touch the telephone during suicide cleanup work.
Of course I quote my suicide cleanup prices on the telephone I keep to them. Only once have I needed to change my price. My client agreed because he describe a suicide scene without first having seen it. My price still came in lower than my competition's prices.
It does not matter if you have money or not. You may call to ask for information. I will give you what I believe helps during suicide cleanup. Do not feel uncomfortable calling me for free information.
For the moment, leave the lights on. If you can, place a sheet or blanket over the suicide scene. These comments assume that the authorities have given their consent to entering the suicide scene.
2. Why are your suicide cleanup prices lower?
I charge a flat fee while quoting my price on the telephone in most cases.
I clean alone. Because I clean alone my overhead remains way below my competitor's prices. I pay for insurance, vehicles, tools, chemicals, and work clothes. My biohazard costs remain low because my biohazard transporter charges a low, flat fee.
3. What does a suicide cleanup entail?
I arrive on time, or at least try to arrive on time. I hand my business card to a responsible party. Then I enter the suicide scene as directed by the responsible party.
I look quickly into the suicide room to understand what has happened. Once I understand the nature of suicide involved I choose the tools and chemicals needed. I then return to the suicide scene.
Suicide cleanup has many similarities to any other type of cleaning. Blood and other potentially infectious materials make a big difference, but cleaning takes place by removing source material. Eliminating loose blood and debris from the surface by either wiping it up or light spraying begins the process. I use disinfectants from beginning to end.
I do a lot of cutting, bending, poking, and lifting when it comes to dissecting mattresses, couches, love seats, carpet, and carpet padding.
Blood soiled materials that I deem "biohazardous" will go into a deep freezer until picked up by my licensed biohazard transporter. Other materials go into plastic bags for disposal in a landfill.
Any materials that could conceivably become infectious under the right conditions must be altered, destroyed, or sealed.
Because I use a proprietary solution for cleaning and dissolving blood from surfaces and fabrics, I avoid heaving scrubbing and high waste fees. A wet/dry vacuum and paper towels serve lifting, moving, and extraction purposes. The sanitary sewer (toilet and sinks) serve for disposal purposes whenever possible.
Sometimes absorbents come in handy. Absorbents easily dissolve in sanitary sewers while carrying blood and other infectious materials with them.
How long have you ran this business?
For about eight years I've cleaned for blood cleanup, including crime scene cleanup, suicide cleanup belongs to the group of biohazard cleanup activities, including death cleanup and trauma cleanup cleanup.
What if I'm not satisfied with your work?
I guarantee my work. I answer my telephone 24/7/365. Call and tell me what you need done. So long as the work you need done fits within the scope of suicide cleanup responsibilities, I will return. Once in seven years an issue came up. I corrected it within hours.
Usually I have removed source material, cleaned and re cleaned, and sealed soiled areas. If blood or other fluids reach an area I cannot readily access for claiming, then I must do minimal demolition to reach the soiled area. Anytime I make a judgment call, then my client becomes fully aware of what I have or have not done. In this way we both know beforehand what might or might not occur.
All suicide cleanup work must ensure the health and safety of anyone entering the suicide area. Otherwise I cannot give my approval. I have a vested interest in making sure that my work passes inspection.
Since I do my own work I know what actions were taken. No guesswork follows my suicide cleanup methods.
What hours do you work?
Whatever hours my client need my services I work. The only exceptions arise when I clean multiple death scenes in succession. As a solo cleaner I must rest before taking on additional suicide cleanup duties.
Because of illegal practices in the Orange County Coroner's office, I must travel for work most of the time. So I spend many hours driving.
Because coroner corruption exists in many counties, I built Orange County Crime Scene Cleanup to help inform the public about corruption. Employees send the grieving public to their own suicide cleanup company or refer families for a kickback. Likewise, Orange County suicide cleanup exists to help overcome the county employee corruption. I built Orange County biohazard cleanup for a similar reasons, besides having another web page like biohazard cleanup.
I also own Orange County blood cleanup and Orange County death cleanup. Like trauma cleanup, I also own Orange County trauma cleanup.
Other businesses under my care include Orange County Landscaping.
