What Morgantown Property Owners Ask About Hazardous Cleanup

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 if a fuel or oil leak happens at my business?

Stop the source only if it is safe, keep people away and call 911 if there is fire risk or danger. A cleanup team contains the leak, removes soaked material and cleans pavement and equipment. It can also provide records for the insurer.

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.

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.

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.
