When to call

When Should You Call Us?

As soon as you notice the carcass — or the smell. Decomposition begins within 24 hours in warm weather, and the smell roughly doubles every 24 hours after that. Earlier removal = less odor remediation needed = lower cost.

Rabies vector species. If you or a pet had any contact with this animal, contact your physician AND the Indiana Department of Health Bureau of Infectious Diseases for rabies post-exposure consultation. We handle the carcass; rabies post-exposure is a separate medical decision.

State routes and interstates are handled by the Indiana Department of Transportation. Carcasses on private property — your yard, attic, driveway, crawlspace — are the homeowner's responsibility. Indiana Dead Animal Removal connects you with a licensed wildlife operator who can be on-site within 4 hours, often same-day.

Indoor recoveries (attic, walls, crawlspace) cost $200-$600 because they involve access cuts, sanitize work, and entry-point assessment.
