For property owners, managers and public agencies in Utah County. Certified, documented, and handled properly.
This is biohazard work, not landscaping. It should be done by people trained for it.
An abandoned encampment is not a litter problem. What gets left behind routinely includes used needles, human waste, drug paraphernalia, food waste, rodent activity, and material contaminated with blood or bodily fluids.
A general labor crew in work gloves is not equipped for that, and a needlestick injury on your property becomes your problem very quickly. This is regulated biohazard work. We are certified and trained to do it.
Not blood. Needles. They turn up inside clothing, under tarpaulins, in soil and in trash bags, and they are almost never visible from a distance.
Every needle we recover goes into an approved sharps container and leaves the site through the regulated medical waste stream, with paperwork. Nothing goes into a dumpster.
Cities and property owners generally have rules about what has to happen to belongings before a site is cleared: notice periods, and how long items must be bagged, tagged and stored.
Those rules are yours, not ours. Before we start, we ask you to tell us in writing what your protocol is, and we follow it exactly.
That protects you as much as it protects anyone else. If it is ever questioned later, you have a dated scope of work, a photographic record, and a signed completion report showing precisely what was removed, what was stored, and where it went.
Tell us and we'll say so plainly. Most owners get theirs from the city or from their attorney. We would rather wait a day for that answer than clear a site without it.
Commercial buildings, retail sites, apartment complexes, HOAs and vacant lots. Recurring clearance if you need it, on a schedule.
Cities, county departments and transit or utility corridors. Full documentation and disposal records supplied as standard.
Organizations with land who would rather not ask volunteers to handle needles. Quite reasonably.
Somebody lived here. That is true whether or not they are still on site, and it does not change what needs cleaning.
We do not photograph people, do not post about jobs, and do not treat anyone's belongings as a joke. Anything your protocol says to keep is kept and labeled, not quietly binned to save an hour.
We are careful with what has been left behind, and quiet about what we have seen. That is the same standard we apply on every job we do.
Encampment work is priced by site, because sites vary enormously. A single abandoned tent behind a building and a half-acre with twenty structures are not the same job.
What we need to quote: the location, roughly how many structures, whether needles are known to be present, and whether there is vehicle access for a truck. Photographs help.
The assessment is free, on site or from photographs, and the quote is itemized. If we're not the right people for it, we'll tell you that too.
Some properties do not have an encampment. They have a needle problem that comes back.
Stairwells, parking structures, laundry rooms, alleys behind retail, park restrooms, church grounds and the landscaping along a fence line. Your maintenance staff are not trained or equipped to pick those up, and they should not be asked to.
We will walk a property on a schedule — weekly, fortnightly or monthly — recover anything found into approved containers, and remove it through the regulated medical waste stream with documentation.
Priced as a monthly retainer rather than per visit. Call and tell us how many sites.
