Planning crime scene cleanup in Shackle Island
In unincorporated Shackle Island, a crime scene is typically handled by county or state investigators rather than a city police department. Their release comes first, along with the medical examiner's if someone died, and only then do we begin. We clean what is left once the investigation is complete: blood and other fluids, fingerprint powder, and debris from forced entry along Long Hollow Pike homes or subdivision streets alike. We never collect, move or handle evidence.
Families whose home was the scene of a homicide, sexual assault or aggravated assault may be eligible for help with cleanup costs, up to $3,000, through Tennessee's Criminal Injuries Compensation program, which pays after other sources such as insurance. We explain the scope plainly for any claim. If a gun was involved, our gunshot cleanup page describes how we handle walls, ceilings and furniture affected by the event.
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.
