Human Feces and Urine Cleanup for University City, Philadelphia, PA Homes and Businesses
Urine cleanup is the removal of urine and the treatment of the odor it leaves. Old urine stains can hide in padding, subfloor and mattress layers, which is why surface cleaning alone often fails.
Need cleaners of fecal matter and urine at your University City home or workplace? You can get help day or night, with 24/7 phone answering, and anyone in Philadelphia County can call University City Biohazard Cleanup Help.
About 83% of homes in Philadelphia were built before 1980, and older carpet, subfloor and wood trim absorb urine deeply. About 38% of residents in Philadelphia are older adults who live alone, and waste cleanup is often needed after a fall or illness that no one noticed right away.
The work often covers:
- Soaked carpet, rugs and bedding cut out and bagged as waste
- Vehicle seats, floor mats and panels contaminated by human waste
- Odor removal from the affected area once the source is gone
- Related contamination, including vomit and blood, found alongside waste
- Waste found outdoors, in garages, sheds or on porches

What University City Residents Ask About Human Waste Cleanup
Why does urine smell keep coming back?
Urine soaks into padding, subfloor and mattress layers, and bacteria keep releasing odor from there. Surface cleaning does not reach it. Removing the soaked materials is usually what ends the smell.
Is urine a biohazard?
Urine is treated with caution, especially when it is mixed with blood or other fluids or has soaked into flooring and mattresses. It can leave bacteria and strong odor behind. A cleanup team removes the soaked materials and disinfects the area.
Is there help paying for cleanup for a family member's home?
Relatives or an estate sometimes cover the cost. Free help exists in some places for people with low incomes, and a local social services office may know of it. Ask the cleanup team about payment plans too.
Is commercial feces cleanup different from home cleanup?
The safety steps are the same, but commercial jobs may involve shared restrooms, customers and business hours. Crews work to close off the area, clean it and keep documentation for managers and insurers.
Who pays for feces and urine cleanup in a rental?
In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. In most other cases the owner of the home or the person arranging the cleanup pays.
What rules do human waste cleaners follow?
Crews follow rules designed to protect workers from bloodborne pathogens, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, when blood or other body fluids are present. Rental housing and sanitation rules vary by city and county.
