Yes. Crews clean offices, shops and vehicles. For a vehicle, law enforcement usually processes it first, so confirm it has been released. Businesses can often plan work around staff and customers.

Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain cases. Renters policies often cover cleanup but not the building. Call your insurer before work starts and ask what applies.
Ask what training the crew has, how waste is disposed of, what records you get and how privacy is protected. A good company explains each step in plain words and answers questions before work starts.
