You called the right team for the job

With the number of homeless encampments increasing, the demand for cleaning up has increased with it. It could be a one-person tent or a large group in a vacant building. Regardless, the cleanup process should be handled by professionals, with discretion, and with compassion.

Encampments can pose liability issues to property owners as well as anyone walking through a public area. They can be found in:

  • Vacant buildings
  • Forests
  • Under bridges
  • Alleyways

When a camp is vacated, the remaining area is contaminated with biohazards and waste:

  • Hypodermic needles
  • Feces, urine, vomit, blood
  • Various debris

We work with law enforcement and other stakeholders to transform the space into a safer area. We also take extra steps to ensure proper identification or preservation of items of value for anyone previously living in the camp.

There is no need to risk it. You can trust Bio-One of Columbia professionals to clean these encampments for you.

Compassion. Experience. Respect.

    Homeless encampments are set up all over the United States and unfortunately they pose a liability to property owners. These encampments can be seen wherever space is available - vacant buildings, forests, under bridges. As the number of homeless encampments increases, so does the need for encampment cleanup. Encampments often contain biohazards such as hypodermic needles, feces, blood, urine, vomit, various debris, and pests including rodents, fleas and cockroaches. Don’t risk exposing your employees or crews to infection.

    From an individual temporarily residing in a tent to large encampments in vacant buildings, these cleanups need to be handled by professionals equipped with proper training and personal protective equipment. Leave it to Bio-One of Columbia, where our technicians are trained to safely remove and clean up contaminated items, and properly dispose of biohazards such as sharps needles.

    Sandra Robbins, Columbia, 04/2025
    Awesome! Ivan & Yolanda and their team did a wonderful job of clearing out and cleaning and sanitizing a 60’x30’ workshop that had accumulated 30 years of dirt and grime. The process was quick and easy, the best part was they were able to complete the job from estimate to work completion in five days. They took care of all the details, including arranging for the dumpster and kept me updated along the way. Highly recommend.

    They were able to remove a stain in our car that we had completely given up on ever getting out— we bought a used car which had a deep blood stain, we had the car detailed several times and it was only with their professional work that it was finally cleared. They were incredibly communicative, very sensitive to our situation and handled the entire process with such grace and care.
