Our 32 regional offices and over 40 mobile units are strategically located across the US to provide blood, accident, and biohazard cleanup with speed, discretion, and quality.

What We Do for Military and Government Clients

OSHA regulations define items contaminated with blood or bodily fluids as regulated waste. This waste must be properly packaged, labeled, and disposed of at a licensed medical waste disposal facility. As a result, more and more government entities are proactively contracting and subcontracting with professional remediation companies to clean up after incidents such as suicides, homicides, accidents, and communicable disease outbreaks. Aftermath is licensed in 48 states, registered on the SAM website, and is OSHA, EPA, and DOT compliant. Our commitment to quality, safety, and compliance is a strength agencies know they can rely on.
