Homeless Camp Cleanup Services in New York

Areas that have been occupied by homeless camps may pose health risks to the occupants, anyone entering the area and those tasked with cleaning the camps. In addition to trash, which can include rotten food that is creating noxious odors, there may be biohazardous materials from human and animal waste, blood, bodily fluids, drugs and syringes. Exposure to these biohazards can be life threatening. The process of cleaning up homeless camps must be done with careful planning and the right equipment and personal protective gear. This should never be performed by anyone other than experienced professionals.

Health Risks of Abandoned Homeless Camps

Steri-Clean New York provides homeless camp clean up services to remove trash and potentially dangerous biohazards such as:

• Dirty syringes

• Needles

• Containers of feces and urine

• Drug paraphernalia

Syringes are dangerous biohazards and need to be disposed of safely in puncture resistant sharps containers. There is a risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens and diseases such as HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. The biohazardous health risks are the main reason why we are hired to cleanup a homeless camp. The camps are not safe for the occupants or anyone else.

In addition to the biohazardous risks that can accompany a homeless camp, the enormous amount of trash and garbage that can accumulate also poses safety issues, including attracting wild animals and other pests that can be harmful to humans. The odor from the trash can be extremely unpleasant to the point of making people sick. Any local homes or businesses nearby might be adversely affected by the odors.

Compassionate & Caring Homeless Camp Cleanup Services

We understand that in the process of cleaning up a homeless camp, we are being hired to discard someone’s personal property, which might be all that they have. We do not approach this responsibility lightly. Prior to commencing any job, we work with our customers to provide ample notification to the camp occupants. We try and provide as much advance notice as possible before we begin clean up. If we find any items that we think might have sentimental value or monetary value, we turn it over to the authorities. The purpose of our job is not to displace anyone, but to provide a clean and safe environment.
