Celina and the lake country around it
Celina sits on the eastern Highland Rim near the Kentucky line, with about 1,400 residents at the 2020 Census. Dale Hollow Dam, which holds back Dale Hollow Lake on the Obey River, is just east of town, and the Cumberland River and Cordell Hull Lake are close by. In the late 1800s, Celina prospered as a logging town, receiving timber floated down the Obey.
Today it is a small rural county seat built around the Clay County Courthouse and its square, with older homes in town and farmland and lake country beyond. SR 52 and SR 53 are the main roads; SR 53 continues northeast to the Kentucky border. Livingston is about 15 miles away, Dodson Branch about 16, and Red Boiling Springs about 19, while Cookeville lies a little under 28 miles off. Because so much of the county is rural, a good share of the homes we might be called to sit well outside the town itself.
Bringing biohazard help to a remote county seat
Celina is among the more distant towns in our Middle Tennessee service area, and we do not have an office anywhere outside the Nashville area. That means planning matters. When you call, we ask enough questions to bring the right equipment and supplies, give you an honest picture of timing, and then confirm the scope in person before any work begins.
Most of our work here involves homes: an older resident who died alone and was not found right away, a medical emergency, a suicide or accident, or a house where hoarding has made rooms unsafe. Rural properties in Clay County often have crawl spaces, outbuildings and septic systems, which bring animal waste and septic backup cleanup into the picture. Offices and businesses around the courthouse square can call us for bodily-fluid incidents or disinfection as well.
After a death or crime in Clay County, the property is first released by law enforcement or the medical examiner, who arrange removal of remains through a funeral home. We do not do septic repair, plumbing, wildlife removal or reconstruction, and we will tell you plainly when another trade is needed. Coverage under insurance depends on the policy.
