Hazmat Cleanup FAQs for Brownstown and Lancaster County

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.

Do biohazard crews clean chemical spills?

Some do, but the work is different. Biohazard cleanup deals with blood and germs, while hazmat deals with harmful substances. Ask whether a team has the gear and procedures for the specific material before hiring it.

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.

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.

Who responds to the emergency first?

Fire and emergency crews respond to immediate dangers, so call 911 first. They make the scene safe. Cleanup usually follows once they release the site. You can then get a cleanup team for removal, cleaning and disposal, and learn what records to keep.

What is hazmat equipment cleaning?

It is the decontamination of tools, gear, machinery and vehicles that touched a hazardous material. Items are cleaned with products suited to the material, and those that cannot be made safe are packed for disposal.
