Crime Scene Cleanup in Centerville
If a crime takes place inside a Centerville home, the family should be able to step away from the cleanup entirely. After law enforcement, and the medical examiner if someone died, release the scene, we remove blood, powder and damaged materials.
Once law enforcement releases a property, we remove blood, fingerprint powder, chemical residue and debris left by the incident and the investigation. Victims and families get a clear explanation of the work and help understanding what compensation programs may apply.
Local considerations in Centerville
- Eligible victims or relatives may receive up to $3,000 from Tennessee's Criminal Injuries Compensation program for cleanup at their home
- That program pays after insurance and other sources
- Investigative work stays with authorities
How this works in Centerville
In Hickman County, local officers handle Centerville itself and the sheriff's office covers the rest of the county. Whichever agency investigates has to finish and hand the property back before any cleaning begins, and the medical examiner has to be done too if a death occurred. At that point we lift out blood and other biological material, wipe away fingerprint powder, sweep debris and haul off anything too contaminated to keep. Evidence never passes through our hands, and in a town where many people know one another, we say nothing about the job.
Under Tennessee law, cleanup at the residence of a victim or a relative after certain crimes can qualify for reimbursement through Criminal Injuries Compensation, capped at $3,000 and paid only after insurance and other sources. Homicide cleanup handles the most serious cases with care, and gunshot cleanup explains how fluids and debris spread through a room. Walls, doors and windows needing repair go to a contractor after we finish, and you will know ahead of time exactly what has to be removed.
For a step-by-step explanation of the process, safety precautions and what we hand to other specialists, see our main crime scene cleanup page.
