Does homeowners insurance cover suicide cleanup?
Many homeowners policies cover death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain causes. Read the policy closely or ask the insurer directly. Renters policies often cover belongings but not the building. Call before cleanup starts and keep every receipt.
Where can I find support after a loss to suicide?
The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline answers calls and texts at 988, 24/7. Funeral homes, faith communities, doctors and counselors can also help you find grief support. A cleanup team cleans the room, but it is not a replacement for people who can help you heal.
