Yes. Many calls come from managers who need a unit made safe for the next tenant. The lease and local law decide who pays, and the crew can provide photos and records for the owner or insurer.
Most cleanup is priced by the job instead of by the hour, because the work depends on the scene. Ask what a quote covers, such as labor, materials, waste and travel. That makes it easier to compare companies.
