What BioCleaners Is and What Its Verification Badges Mean
BioCleaners (biocleanersdirectory.com) is a free search for biohazard and crime scene cleanup companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. It is built for the people who have to hire one of these companies with no warning: a family after a death at home, a landlord, a property manager, an insurance adjuster or a funeral home.
What you can search for
Search by ZIP code, city or state, or start from the type of job. The site groups the work into four families:
- Trauma and death: crime scene, unattended death, suicide and blood cleanup
- Drug and chemical: meth lab cleanup, fentanyl decontamination and drug house cleanup
- Biohazard and disease: biohazard remediation, infectious disease cleanup and vehicle biohazard cleanup
- Living conditions: hoarding cleanup and odor removal
Searching costs nothing, and neither does asking several companies for a quote. Companies can claim their own listing for free.
Where the listings come from
Listings start from public business records and each company's own website, and every one is screened for relevance to biohazard work. In 2026 that screening removed 3,566 listings, 43% of the original database. They were carpet cleaners, pest control companies, maid services and other businesses outside the field. Star ratings and review counts come from Google and refresh about every two weeks.
The four levels of verification
| Level | What it means |
|---|---|
| Unclaimed listing | A company listed from public data. No badge. The site has not checked its license or insurance. |
| Verified | The business claimed its profile and proved who it is with an 8-digit code sent to an email address on its own website domain. |
| Pro Verified | Verified, plus 3 or more credentials that staff reviewed and approved. These can be an insurance declaration, IICRC certification, a state biohazard license where the state requires one, OSHA bloodborne pathogens training or a state business registration. |
| Elite Verified | All four core credentials approved (insurance, IICRC, state license and OSHA bloodborne pathogens training) plus an average rating of 4.5 or higher across at least 10 reviews. |
A badge is not an endorsement. It does not promise work quality, price or response time. A few states license biohazard work and most do not, so confirm insurance and training with any company before the crew starts.
Free state guides
Every state has its own pages on what the state crime victim compensation fund pays toward cleanup, what the licensing rules are, and what a seller has to disclose after a death in a home. The victim compensation figures for all 51 jurisdictions were checked against each state's official program rules. Ohio, for example, pays up to $750 toward crime scene cleanup, and families have 3 years from the crime to apply.
