The cost of forensic cleaning after a death usually falls to the property owner—this could be a family member, landlord, executor of an estate, or housing provider. In the case of rental properties, responsibility may depend on the circumstances surrounding the death and the tenancy agreement. If the incident was related to a crime or violence, there may be government support available to assist with costs.

In Queensland, Victim Assist may help cover forensic cleaning expenses for eligible victims of violent crime. In New South Wales, Victims Support Services offers similar financial assistance in qualifying cases. At Biohaz, we are familiar with these processes and can provide supporting documentation, quotes, and invoices to help you submit a claim. Our goal is to ease the burden during a difficult time by offering compassionate, discreet service and practical guidance through the steps involved.
