Surfaces, fixtures and shared equipment are disinfected in a set order, from cleaner areas to dirtier ones.
Bagged waste leaves with the crew. The space is checked and returned for normal use.

Common methods include hand hygiene, protective equipment, cleaning and disinfection, ventilation and keeping sick people apart from others. Cleanup crews use several of them together when they decontaminate a space.
Hand sanitizer is meant for skin, not for disinfecting surfaces. It may evaporate before the needed contact time and can damage some finishes. Use an EPA-registered surface disinfectant for counters, door handles and furniture.
Infectious disease cleanup is handled discreetly. Ask when you call about unmarked vehicles and quiet work. Cleaners are there for the property owner, not to draw attention.
Renters policies often cover a tenant's belongings but not the building. A landlord's or business policy may cover the space. Lease and local law decide who pays between a landlord and a tenant. Employers and property managers often pay after an outbreak.
It depends on the size of the space and the number of surfaces. A single room is a short job. Whole buildings, shared housing or spaces with soft materials to remove take longer, plus the required contact time.
State and local health departments can advise during outbreaks. You can get a cleanup team for the disinfection itself, and a doctor or the health department can answer questions about symptoms and testing.
