Suicide Cleanup FAQ for Baton Rouge, LA: Who Cleans, Who Pays
Who pays if the person was a tenant?
Lease terms and local law decide. A landlord may handle cleanup through the owner's insurance, or the tenant's estate or renters policy may apply. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can explain the details for a specific case.
What happens to personal belongings and keepsakes?
Photos, letters, jewelry and papers are set aside, cleaned when possible and returned to the family. Tell the team what to look for. Items that cannot be made safe are removed, and the team explains why.
Do I need to be at the property during cleanup?
Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can also ask the team to pause while a family member collects something.

The price depends on the size of the affected area, whether fluids soaked into flooring and the amount of furniture removed. Odor treatment and access also matter. A team can give a price range after hearing the details. Insurance may cover part of it.
I found someone at home. What do I do first?
