Biohazard cleanup in Alaska is limited to a small number of companies, and only one town has its own page: Anchorage. Families dealing with a death, a suicide, a crime or a hoarded home will find the Anchorage page below this intro, along with the state's official rules on drug lab sites and crime victim compensation.
The one company with its own page is Warren & Son LLC, rated 4.8 from 290 reviews. On its own site, it says it does biohazard cleanup and odor removal, which are the two services that come up most often after a death or a long-closed home.
Alaska does not certify meth lab cleanup. The Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) handles illegal drug manufacturing sites through its Contaminated Sites Program, and its public list shows which properties are certified fit for use. Crime victim compensation covers crime scene cleanup, up to $7,000 through the Alaska Violent Crimes Compensation Board (VCCB). The claimant is the victim or an eligible family member, and the claim needs itemized receipts for cleanup paid in the claimant's name.
