There’s a carcass on your property and a shovel in your garage, and you’d rather not introduce them. Smart. Pickup means it gets bagged, carried off, and disposed of properly — and you never get closer than the window.
The classic morning discovery. Bagged and gone, with the ground it lay on treated if it sat a while.
Concrete cleans up well when it’s dealt with promptly — another reason not to wait the week out.
Animals fall in and can’t climb out. Tight-space retrieval without turning it into a production.
Where wildlife travels, wildlife sometimes stops for good. Includes the awkward strip behind the garage.
Parking lots, dumpster corrals, courtyards. One call from a manager beats a volunteer with a trash bag.
Disturbed nests and bad weeks happen. Everything found on the visit leaves together, as one job.
Full-size deer are their own operation with their own equipment — that’s the dead deer removal page. And if the “carcass” is so far only a smell, odor removal is your starting point.
The hard part of a carcass was never picking it up — it’s what happens next. Disposal has rules, bins have limits, and a bagged animal in a hot garage waiting for trash day is a problem you don’t want to meet twice. Pickup means it leaves your property the same visit, headed somewhere legitimate.
It also means the health part is someone else’s gloves: carcasses host bacteria, fleas, ticks, and occasionally whatever killed the animal. One call closes the whole file — lifting, hauling, disposal, and a treated spot where it lay. A carcass in the public street is a different story: that’s generally the city’s to collect, and worth reporting to them instead of paying anyone.
Not at all — single-carcass pickups are the bread and butter of this work. One animal, one visit, done. Nobody will make you feel silly for not wanting to bag a raccoon yourself, because most people don’t, and shouldn’t have to.
For a small animal, some people do — gloves, double bag, sealed bin. But carcasses carry bacteria, parasites and sometimes the reason the animal died, and larger animals shouldn’t go in household trash at all. If you’d rather not gamble your health on a shovel technique, that’s what the pickup is for.
Yes. Multi-carcass calls happen — a disturbed nest, a poisoning event next door, a bad week for a litter. Everything found on the visit goes, and it’s one job, not a per-carcass circus.
Handled as part of the pickup where the carcass was leaking — the spot on the patio, deck or soil gets cleaned and treated. A carcass stain that keeps smelling defeats the point of removing the carcass.
