Serving Homer Glen and Will County

Homer Glen is a semi-rural village in Will County known for its larger lots, open space, and the wooded, low-density character that distinguishes it from the denser suburbs around it, a community of established homes and newer custom construction.

The larger properties and rural pockets here mean our calls range from a home in a subdivision to a property set well back off the road, and rural distance never means a lesser response. In older and custom homes alike, contamination travels into the structure rather than staying on the surface. Our technicians trace the full extent, decontaminate to a verified safe standard, and coordinate quietly with the Will County Coroner’s Office and the local authorities, disposing of all material under our Illinois EPA license M9110.

We also serve nearby Lockport, Orland Park, Lemont, and the surrounding communities. See our full Illinois crime scene cleanup coverage.

Help With the Cost of Cleanup in Homer Glen

Most biohazard and trauma cleanup is covered by homeowner’s or property insurance, and we bill your carrier directly. If the scene involves a qualifying violent crime, the Illinois Crime Victims Compensation Program, administered by the Illinois Attorney General and Court of Claims, has covered crime scene cleanup as an eligible expense since 2022, up to the program’s 45,000 dollars maximum, for families who report the crime and file within the deadline. Most families who qualify never apply, because no one tells them it exists. We do, and we help with the paperwork.

Who Handles a Death in Homer Glen

After a sudden or unexpected death, the Will County Coroner’s Office determines cause and manner, and the funeral home handles the arrangements. Neither one cleans the property. That responsibility falls to the family or the owner, which catches many people off guard during an already devastating time. ACT Cleaners steps into exactly that gap, decontaminating and restoring the scene to a verified safe condition and following Illinois EPA medical waste regulations under our license number M9110.

Before We Arrive: What To Do and What Not To Do

Please do

  • Keep people and pets out of the area. Blood and fluids can carry pathogens that are not visible.
  • Lower the thermostat if you safely can. Cooler air slows biological activity and odor until we arrive.
  • Call us first, before you touch anything. A real technician will tell you exactly what to do next, any hour.
  • Have your insurance information ready. We can start the claim and bill the carrier directly.

Please do not

  • Do not let cost stop you from calling. Insurance usually covers this, and Illinois Crime Victims Compensation may help for violent crimes.
  • Do not clean biological material yourself. Household products do not disinfect to a safe standard, and the exposure is real.
  • Do not discard belongings yet. Some can be saved, and some matter for an insurance or compensation claim.
  • Do not run fans or central air. Airflow moves contamination through the home and HVAC.

Can the state help pay after a violent crime?
