Yes. A property owner can call a cleanup team to clear and clean a unit after a tenant leaves. Lease terms and local law decide who pays. Keep photos and records, and ask the team what documentation it can provide.
A careful cleanup removes the items and cleans the surfaces it covers. Testing is a separate step, and rules vary by place. Ask the team what it did and did not check, and ask the local health department what applies where you live.
Keep them out of affected rooms until a cleanup team has finished. Children and pets are closest to floors and furniture and are most at risk from residue. If a child or pet touches or swallows something, call Poison Control or a veterinarian.
Police and the city do not usually clean the space afterward. The owner or the family books the cleanup once the scene is released. A cleanup team can work after the release and explain the steps. Ask the agency when the space is cleared.
Ask about discreet arrival in an unmarked vehicle if privacy matters.
