In Memphis, Tennessee, we received a call to our local office location.

Police had been discovering meth labs left and right that week. We had been exceptionally busy with prior crime scene contracts when we received a job to clean and dispose of a meth lab discovered in a wealthy part of the town. Apparently a local Doctor’s wife had been not only cooking meth in their home but selling it as well. Her husband is the one who called us saying he was finally done with her behavior and wanted the hazardous and lethal business disposed.

The husband explained he called the Police to report his wife when he discovered his partner was unfaithful. Apparently they had struggled with her meth addiction for years and in the middle of a trial separation until his spouse could prove she had cleaned up her act. This outcome did not seem very likely as her addiction had become her only priority.

Cleaning up a meth lab is a serious matter and calls for not only professional equipment and guidelines but a trustworthy and professional company like Advanced Bio Treatment.

ABT is HAZWOPER certified in the State of Tennessee for Meth Lab cleanup. We take precautions extremely serious. Meth can potentially cause lung, eye and skin damage and it can pose risks to any dwelling, if not cleaned up properly. These reasons alone demonstrate the importance of contracting a professionally trained company any time chemicals or biohazardous material is involved.

When we arrived on scene where the meth lab was located, we did our initial evaluation and spoke with the husband. The gentleman was anxious for us to get to work so he could begin to put this burden behind him and resume his life. As our team began he seemed overwhelmed with emotion, tears of anger, frustration, and sadness filled his defeated eye. Advanced Bio Treatment understands that there services include more than properly disposing waste, it allows family and friends to grieve without the burden and trauma of sorting through the aftermath of tragedy.

ABT uses an extensive three-step process when cleaning meth labs. First, we evaluate and create a site plan so we know exactly what needs to be removed and disinfected. This ensures the job will be done effectively the first time around.

Secondly, we decontaminate the site and remove of disposable waste according to Tennessee’s state guidelines. Advanced Bio Treatment handles everything A to Z. In this particular cleanup it took us about five days to completely remove and decontaminate all meth lab instruments and debris.

Lastly, We will hire a certified Industrial hygienist to make certain the home is deemed clean and safe. Our company provides excellent service to our clients as they are our livelihood.

If you need help or guidance with a cleanup service please don’t hesitate to call us 24/7. We will provide all the information necessary in regards to the procedures and payment options.
