Stained concrete, soaked soil and contaminated surfaces are cleaned or removed. Tools are decontaminated or disposed of after use.

4. Decontaminate and document

Tools and surfaces are cleaned or discarded, waste is packed and the owner receives a summary of what was done.

What North Corktown Property Owners Ask About Hazardous Cleanup

What if the spill reached soil or a drain?

Keep people away and call 911 if there is danger. Cleanup teams place barriers and absorbents to stop the spread and remove contaminated soil or materials where needed. Local fire and health officials can say what must be reported.

Can a hazmat crew help after a flood or fire?

Yes. Floods and fires can break containers and mix contents. Crews identify what spilled, contain it and remove damaged containers and soaked materials. They also clean the surfaces the release touched.

Can I clean up a hazardous spill myself?

Small spills of familiar products may be manageable by following the label. Large, unknown or dangerous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.

What are hazardous cleaning services best for?

They suit any site where a harmful material needs safe removal, from a garage leak to a fleet-yard spill. They are also used before a sale, a lease or an inspection that needs documented cleanup.

Will the cleanup be discreet?

Usually yes. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep the job private. Tell the team at the start if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.

What if I find unlabeled drums on a property?

Do not open, move or smell them. Keep people and pets away and take photos from a safe distance. You can get a cleanup team to identify the contents, sort them by hazard and set up lawful disposal.
