Birmingham Hazmat Cleaning Questions, Answered
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.
How do I choose a hazmat cleanup company?
Ask what training the crew has, how waste is managed and what records you get. Request references and a clear description of the steps. Then decide whether the company fits your site.
What does a hazmat cleaning company do?
A hazmat cleaning company contains and removes hazardous materials, cleans the affected area and equipment, and hauls the waste by the rules that apply. It usually arrives after emergency responders make the scene safe. Ask the team what it covers on your site.
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.
