Aside from the city of Albany animal services or Albany 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 Albany police department or Albany SPCA or humane society. Click here for Dead Pet Body Removal in Albany. 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 Albany, 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.

We are Albany Dead Animal– a team of professional, highly-trained wildlife removal technicians, specialising in the removal of dead wild animals. Our expert-level field technicians will track down the source of the smell, remove it, and then sanitise and decontaminate the previously affected area. In doing so, all biological hazards are gone along with the threat of disease, and the offensive scent that often follows dead wildlife will also be eliminated. We can successfully remove dead opossums, mice, rats, stray cats, feral dogs, raccoons, and many more; and we can also take care of any live nuisance wildlife at the same time, sealing the building and putting measures in place to ensure that pests are no longer a problem for the entire property. This includes both inside and outside of the premises, and also the surrounding lands, such as front or back yards and any outbuildings. We can offer ballpark quotes over the phone, but an inspection is necessary to get an idea of the full scope of the job – but our friendly technicians work around the clock to make sure we’re ready to solve your problems as soon as you grab the phone.
