Aside from the city of Elizabeth animal services or Union County Animal Control, free dead animal removal is sometimes offered by government agencies that go by names such as public works department, department of transportation, environmental services, division of street maintenance, sanitation department, etc. Don't call the Elizabeth police department or Elizabeth SPCA or humane society. Click here for Dead Pet Body Removal in Elizabeth. Usually you can put dead animal carcasses in refuse containers - aka garbage cans, although sometimes that's frowned upon. I'd do it for smaller animals under 20 lbs for sure though. For larger animals maybe call the sanitation dept. or call the number listed above. The removal of large livestock animals such as a dead horse or dead cow is usually handled by private enterprises. But in all cases in Elizabeth, if the body is on private property, the removal of dead animals is handled by the citizen or by a private company, such as ours listed below.

America is known for its rich and diverse wildlife, and it’s certainly fascinating to enjoy … from a distance. Unfortunately, wild critters don’t understand “from a distance” and have a habit of encroaching on human properties, wreaking havoc. We here at Elizabeth Dead Animal understand how devastating a wild animal intrusion can be, especially when that wild animal then goes on to die in the building. The removal job is particularly unpleasant, with a range of health and safety hazards to worry about, and it will continue to happen all the while your home or property has openings that passing wild critters can then use to get inside. We can offer you a range of services to deal with every aspect of a pest wild animal problem, including preventative measures, sealing the building, repairs and restorations to a professional level, and physical removal of the animals themselves. We can also dispose of dead critters in a safe and legal way, and appropriately deal with live, captured animals – and this goes for inside the property and outside the property, on the surrounding land. With full commercial liability insurance, our technicians are fully equipped and insured to deal with commercial premises alongside residential ones. If you’d like to finally see the back of your nuisance wildlife problem, give us a call on 908-617-0703 today. We answer the phones all throughout the day and night, even at weekends and on the holidays – and we can usually book you a same-day appointment for those urgent cases.
