Biohazard cleanup in the Shamrock City
Erin is the seat of Houston County in northwest Middle Tennessee, a town of about 1,200 people at the 2020 Census. Its name most likely comes from a poetic name for Ireland, and Irish railroad workers settled the area in the late 1800s. Since 1962, the town has held a week-long Irish celebration every March, with a Grand Parade on the third Saturday.
Main Street, which carries SR 49, is the heart of town, with residential streets around it and the Houston County Courthouse nearby. SR 13 and SR 149 also pass through. Tennessee Ridge is less than four miles away, and Dover, McEwen and Waverly are each within about 16 miles.
How we serve Erin and the county around it
Our mobile service works out of the Nashville area. Erin is one of the farther towns we cover, but distance does not change how we work: we discuss the situation with you by phone, give you an honest sense of what the job involves, and confirm the scope in person before we begin. We have no local office, so everything we need travels with us, including protective equipment, containment supplies and EPA-registered disinfectants.
In a small, rural county seat, nearly all calls are residential or involve small public and commercial buildings. Typical situations include a death at home that was not discovered right away, blood from a fall or medical emergency, a home that has become unsafe through hoarding, a septic backup, or animal droppings in an attic, crawl space or outbuilding. Churches, offices and businesses along Main Street occasionally need bodily-fluid cleanup or disinfection too. During the March celebration, when visitors fill the streets, organizers and property owners can call us if restrooms or public areas need bodily-fluid cleanup afterward.
If law enforcement or the medical examiner is involved, they release the property first, and remains are removed by them or a funeral home. We do not do septic repair, plumbing, wildlife removal or rebuilding, and we will tell you when one of those trades is needed.
