Biohazard cleanup in Petaluma

Which Petaluma number to call
For a question after the scene is released, use the non-emergency number, (707) 778-4373. The other published number, (707) 778-4372, is a phone tree and directory, handy for reaching the officer who handled your case. In an emergency, always dial 911.
If you need a copy of the police report for an insurer or for victim compensation, Petaluma asks for a written request; its contact page explains who may receive one.
Outside city limits
Some homes with a Petaluma mailing address are outside the city, in the unincorporated county. There the Sheriff's Office responds instead, and its dispatch center takes non-emergency calls on 707-565-2121. If you are unsure which applies, the dispatcher can tell you.
