Crawfordsville and the Surrounding Area

Crawfordsville sits in Montgomery County along the I-74 corridor west of Indianapolis, a historic county seat and home to Wabash College, pairing older downtown and near-campus neighborhoods with surrounding farm country.

The older housing near downtown and the college holds contamination in hardwood, plaster, and subfloor, and the student and rental properties around Wabash call for particular discretion when something happens. Our technicians decontaminate to a verified safe standard, document for the property and its insurer, and coordinate quietly with the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office and the Crawfordsville Police Department.

We also serve nearby Lafayette, Lebanon, Greencastle, and the surrounding communities. See our full Indiana crime scene cleanup coverage.

Who Handles a Death in Crawfordsville

After a sudden or unexpected death, the Montgomery 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 Indiana’s 410 IAC 1-3 medical waste regulations.

First Steps Before We Get There

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 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.
  • Do not let cost stop you from calling. Insurance usually covers this, and Indiana 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.

Paying for Cleanup: Insurance and Indiana Compensation

You should not let cost stop you from calling. Insurance covers this work in most cases, and we handle the claim directly with your carrier. When a violent crime is involved, the Indiana Violent Crime Victim Compensation Fund, run by the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI), can cover crime scene cleanup up to 15,000 dollars for families who report and file on time. We help eligible families understand and apply for it on the first call.

Frequently Asked Questions in Crawfordsville

How fast can you reach Crawfordsville?

We answer 24/7, including holidays, and dispatch immediately, with a 35 to 45 minute target response for most of the Montgomery County area. We give you an honest window based on your exact location.

Who investigates a death in Crawfordsville?

Montgomery County uses the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office to determine cause and manner of death. Cleanup of the property afterward falls to the family or owner, which is what ACT Cleaners handles. Call (888) 477-0015.

Do you offer 24 hour emergency biohazard cleanup?

Yes. We provide 24 hour emergency crime scene and biohazard cleanup every day of the year, with a real technician answering and a 35 to 45 minute target response for most of the service area.

Do you handle decomposition odor?

Yes. Odor means biological material is still present, often where you cannot see it. We address it at the source rather than masking it, because masking always fails over time.

Does homeowners insurance cover biohazard cleanup?

In most cases, yes. Most homeowner’s and property policies cover biohazard, trauma, and unattended death cleanup, whether or not a crime occurred. We document the scene and bill your carrier directly.

Can the state help pay after a violent crime?

If the scene involves a qualifying violent crime, the Indiana Violent Crime Victim Compensation Fund, administered by the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, may cover crime scene cleanup up to 15,000 dollars for families who report and file on time. We help eligible families apply.
