Call 778-828-6094"What happens now?"
It's the question every family asks. After a death at home in British Columbia, this is the order in which things happen, and where we come in.
Police attend
Call 911. Police attend the scene first, as they must in any unexpected death.
The coroner takes your loved one into care
The BC Coroners Service is responsible for the person who has died. This is never the role of a cleaning company.
We clean and restore the space
Once the scene is released, our certified technicians decontaminate the area and restore it to a safe, livable condition. One call: 778-828-6094.

Questions families ask us every day
Who cleans up after a death in Vancouver?
In BC, police attend first and the BC Coroners Service takes the person who has died into their care. Cleaning the space afterwards is the family's or property owner's responsibility, it isn't done by police or the coroner. That's the work Local Trauma Clean does: certified technicians decontaminate and restore the space, anywhere in the Lower Mainland.
Do trauma cleaners remove the body?
No. The coroner is responsible for taking a person who has died into their care, after police have attended. Our work begins only once that has happened and the scene is released. Our role is to make the space safe and clean again.
How much does trauma or biohazard cleaning cost?
Every scene is different, so we quote after understanding the situation. A project manager gathers basic details by phone and can arrange a free, no-obligation on-site assessment to give you an accurate quote and timeline before any work begins.
How quickly can you attend?
Our phones are answered 7 days a week and crews dispatch from East Vancouver, so we can typically attend anywhere in the Lower Mainland quickly, often the same day. Call 778-828-6094 and we'll give you a realistic arrival time for your location.
Is your work discreet?
Yes. We understand these situations are sensitive and often deeply personal. Our technicians work respectfully and discreetly, and we never share details of any job. Neighbours simply see a professional cleaning crew.
What areas do you serve?
We serve the entire Lower Mainland and Sea-to-Sky corridor from our Vancouver office, including Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, New Westminster, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Delta, Tsawwassen, White Rock, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Langley, Abbotsford, Mission, Chilliwack, Hope, Squamish, Whistler, Pemberton.
