Yes. Many estate cleanout teams sweep and clean floors, kitchens and bathrooms after the contents are gone. If biohazard work is needed, ask whether the same team can do it, so access and timing stay simple.
Teams usually check drawers, closets and pockets for cash, jewelry and papers and set them aside for the family. Tell the crew what to look for, and ask how found items will be returned to you.
Most are, but not all. If the person died alone and was found after some time, fluids can soak into floors and furniture. Spoiled food, mold, pests and needles can also be present. If you are unsure, do not clear the area yourself.
Do not rush to clear the house, and do not throw anything away before checking for papers, valuables and keepsakes. Do not make large decisions in the first days. Ask for help, and ask an attorney before disposing of anything with legal weight.
Usually not for the whole job. Many families join for a first walkthrough or look at items by photo or video. Ask how keys, access and decisions can be sorted out by phone. You can also ask the team to pause while you go through the rooms.
Ask how it protects papers and valuables, how it deals with hazards and where items go. Ask what the price includes, whether it can start with a photo walkthrough and what happens if the work runs long.
