Chemical and Toxic Waste Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Kew Gardens Hills, New York, NY
Can chemicals be left in a garage or shed?
Old or leaking products are a risk. Heat, humidity and age can damage containers, and fumes can build up. If containers are leaking, damaged or unlabeled, have a cleanup team remove them.
Can a cleanup team help before a property sale or inspection?
Yes. Buyers, lenders and inspectors may ask that chemical waste be removed and documented. The crew removes the waste, cleans the area and supplies a summary of what was done.
Can I clean up a chemical spill myself?
Small spills of familiar household products may be manageable with the label's directions. Unknown, large or hazardous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.
Do biohazard crews clean chemical spills?
Some do, but the work is different. Biohazard cleanup deals with blood, body fluids and germs, while chemical cleanup deals with harmful substances. Ask whether a team has the gear and procedures for the specific chemical before hiring it.
What if a mercury thermometer or lamp breaks?
Open a window if it is safe, leave the room and keep people and pets away. Do not vacuum or sweep mercury, since that spreads it. Call Poison Control with questions, and call a cleanup team if the spill is large.
Do OSHA rules apply to chemical cleanup?
OSHA sets safety rules for workers who handle hazardous substances. Professional crews follow those rules and use gear matched to the hazard. Employers have their own duties, which safety staff or an attorney can explain.
