Rhea Toles - Vice President and Owner

Bio Clean Inc.
Rhea’s discussion today will expand on the following - Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) is one of those interesting and unique programs we see on our TV screens — often sensationalized and founded in a “Whodunit?” storyline — but in real life, after evidence has been gathered, someone needs to clean up the aftermath. That’s where Bio Clean Inc. comes in.
Well … sometimes.
If not a crime scene, Bio Clean may also be called to help clean up in cases of unattended or self-inflicted deaths, hoarding situations, evictions, drug use, or any otherwise biohazardous (and often unpleasant or traumatic) environments.
“It’s more than just cleaning — it’s therapy,” said Bio Clean owner, Rhea Toles. “We can clean out a whole house in a day, but what puts us back [timing-wise] is really dealing with a client. People think, ‘Oh, you're just a cleaning company,’ but we are actually suicide-training certified, we're first aid certified … It’s a lot more than that.”
