Washington's growing homelessness crisis, opioid epidemic, and Puget Sound urban density create steady biohazard cleanup demand — and the state's strict L&I workers' comp system makes safety documentation a financial necessity.
Washington Licensing & Compliance
What biohazard & crime scene cleanup companies in Washington need to know before and after deploying AI operations.
Licensing Body
Washington State Department of Ecology
License Required
No state-specific biohazard cleanup license; Ecology regulates dangerous waste; contractor registration through L&I
Washington does not require a specific biohazard cleanup license, but contractor registration through L&I is required. Washington Department of Ecology regulates infectious and dangerous waste disposal. Washington OSHA (WISHA/DOSH) operates a state plan with some standards stricter than federal requirements. Workers' compensation through the mandatory state fund (no private insurance option for most employers) creates high fixed costs. Seattle has additional health department requirements for biohazard operations.

Companies with 3+ years of documented clean records typically see 15-20% premium reductions.
Digital job forms document every aspect of the remediation: pre-work conditions, remediation process, waste disposal manifests, and clearance testing.
