Biohazard cleanup in Woodbury, Tennessee

Cleanup in Woodbury: what shapes the work

The town itself covers only about two square miles, so most Cannon County residents live outside it on farms and country roads. At rural properties, an incident may involve a farmhouse, a workshop or an outbuilding as well as the main home, and each needs its own plan.

As the county seat, Woodbury holds much of Cannon County's government and court business. Public buildings have their own purchasing and scheduling rules, so cleanup there is arranged through the office responsible for the building, often outside business hours.

Before help arrives

1. If someone is hurt or has died, call 911 first. Inside city limits the Woodbury Police Department responds; outside them, the Cannon 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.
