Biohazard cleanup in Gordonsville, Tennessee

Cleanup in Gordonsville: what shapes the work

Gordonsville Highway meets Interstate 40 at Exit 258, where a truck stop and travel services serve through traffic. Incidents tied to the interstate, whether in a vehicle, a restroom or a guest room, need discreet handling that lets the business keep operating.

Away from the exit, the town is residential, surrounded by farmland. Rural homes in the area tend to have wells and septic systems, and older houses may have crawlspaces that need to be checked.

Before help arrives

1. If someone is hurt or has died, call 911 first. Inside city limits the Gordonsville Police Department responds; outside them, the Smith County Sheriff's Office.
2. Do not clean anything yet. Wait until the scene is released, and avoid household cleaners on blood or fluids.
3. Close off the area. Shut the door, keep children and pets out, and turn off fans blowing toward the room.
4. Write down the case or report number and the agency name. Your insurer and the property owner may need it.
5. Call us when you are ready. We will explain what is involved before anything is agreed.
