The Plainfield-based biohazard and after death cleanup company, founded by the family that helped write the industry's national standards, now covers the Chicago area with local crews and no travel fees.
CHICAGO, IL, August 18, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When somebody calls Huuso Bio, it is usually the worst day of their life. A parent has died alone. A crime happened in the living room. Nobody teaches you what to do next, and the last thing a grieving family should worry about is whether help is three hours away.
That is why Huuso Bio has grown its roster of trained, IICRC-certified technicians across the Chicago area. More local techs means faster arrivals in Chicago, Naperville, Joliet, and Aurora, plus Elgin, Hoffman Estates, Lake Forest, Highland Park, and every community in between. And because the crews are already here, there are no travel fees anywhere in the Chicagoland service area. Ever.
"Nobody plans for the day they need us," said Kevin Reifsteck, co-founder of Huuso Bio. "When that phone rings, someone on the other end is hurting. They don't need a call center reading a script, and they don't need a truck coming from another state with a travel charge tacked on. They need a neighbor who knows exactly what to do. That's who we hire and that's who we train."
The Family That Wrote the Book on This Work
Huuso Bio isn't new to hard days. The Reifsteck brothers who founded the company have spent decades in trauma and crime scene cleanup, and the protocols they developed helped shape the ANSI/IICRC S540 Standard, the national standard the entire industry follows today. Every Huuso Bio technician trains through the company's own Huuso Bio Academy, including its "I Care" program, which teaches techs how to communicate with families in the middle of a traumatic event, not just how to disinfect a room.
That matters, because this work is about more than cleaning. It is blood cleanup, unattended death cleanup, suicide and homicide cleanup, hoarding, and infectious disease disinfection, done to OSHA, CDC, EPA, and Illinois Department of Public Health requirements. But it is also sitting with a widow at the kitchen table and explaining, in plain English, what happens next.
