Biohazard cleanup in White Bluff, Tennessee

Cleanup in White Bluff: what shapes the work

The 2020 census classified White Bluff as entirely rural, even though the population has grown from a few hundred in 1910 to several thousand today. Its biggest jumps in population came around 1970 and 2010, so older houses sit alongside newer ones, and detached garages, shops and barns can be part of a property as well as the house.

Homes outside the town's water and sewer lines may use a private well or septic system. On those properties, nothing from the cleanup is rinsed onto the ground or into household drains. Water and solution are collected, and contaminated material is bagged and taken away.

Before help arrives

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