Public property, public accountability
Government agencies manage a wide range of property: offices, courthouses, jails, libraries, parks, restrooms, transit facilities, vehicles, right-of-way and properties taken through code enforcement or tax foreclosure. Biohazard and contamination events happen on all of them, and agencies need vendors who meet purchasing rules, carry the required insurance and document every job for public records.
Typical agency projects
- Public facilities: blood, bodily fluid and death scene cleanup in buildings
- Jails, holding cells and courthouses
- Police and fleet vehicles
- Parks, restrooms and trails: needles, human waste and contamination
- Encampment cleanups coordinated with outreach and enforcement agencies
- Code enforcement and nuisance properties: abatement of hoarding, animal waste and debris at properties under municipal orders
- Tax-foreclosed and land bank properties being prepared for disposition
Working under public procurement
We work through your procurement method, whether purchase orders, cooperative contracts, quotes or formal bids, and provide insurance certificates, W-9s and other vendor documents. Documentation is prepared with public records requests in mind: clear scopes, quantities, photos and dates.
Code enforcement abatements
When a municipality abates a nuisance at a private property, notice and due process are handled by the city. We perform the cleanup to the abatement order's scope and document costs for lien or billing purposes.
Coordination with other agencies
Many projects involve police, public health, social services or public works. We follow the lead agency's plan and keep each agency informed through your project contact.
Common questions
Can you work under a cooperative purchasing contract?
Contact us with the contract details and we'll confirm.
Do you provide prevailing wage documentation?
On projects where prevailing wage applies, required payroll documentation can be provided.
Do you remove people from encampments?
No. Notices, outreach and enforcement are agency functions. We perform the cleanup.
