Chemical and Toxic Waste Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in McKinley, Minneapolis, MN
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.
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.
How do biological hazards differ from chemical hazards?
Biological hazards come from living things, such as bacteria, viruses and body fluids. Chemical hazards come from substances like solvents, acids, fuels and pesticides. They need different gear, products and disposal, and some jobs involve both.
What should I do first after a chemical spill?
Get everyone away from the area, including pets. Call 911 if anyone is in danger, or Poison Control with exposure questions. Do not touch unknown containers or try to wash a spill away. Then call a cleanup team for next steps.
