Illinois-specific challenges we address during deployment.

  • Cook County's property management market generates a high volume of unattended death cleanups in rental properties, where landlords demand fast turnaround to minimize lost rent
  • Illinois workers' comp rates for biohazard cleanup are among the highest in the Midwest, making safety documentation a financial imperative
