How the Crime Scene Cleanup Process Works in Granite Falls, MN

The team confirms the scene is released, gathers access details and talks through what the owner wants kept.

2. Find every affected spot

Crews check floors, baseboards, walls and furniture. They also look at hidden places such as the subfloor and the backs of cabinets.

3. Deep disinfection

Every surface the fluids touched is cleaned in layers, then treated with a hospital-grade disinfectant.

4. Odor and air

Deodorizing and air filtration remove the smell at its source so the room feels normal again.

When can crime scene cleanup start?

Only after law enforcement releases the scene. Ask the investigating agency directly. Until then, stay out of the area and do not move or clean anything.
