Ask what training the crew has, how waste is disposed of, what records you get and how privacy is protected. A good company explains each step in plain words and answers questions before work starts.
Only after law enforcement releases the scene. In Texas, a justice of the peace or a medical examiner, depending on the county, looks into certain deaths. Ask the police when the property can be entered.

The cost depends on how large the affected area is, how many porous materials are removed and how much odor treatment is needed. The cleanup team sets its price after seeing the space. Insurance or victim compensation may cover part of it.
