Questions About Hazardous Materials Cleanup in Chicopee, MA

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.

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.

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?
