What Van Vleck Property Owners Ask About Hazardous Cleanup
What is the difference between hazmat and biohazard?
Biohazard usually means materials that carry germs, such as blood and body fluids. Hazmat means materials that are dangerous in other ways, such as chemicals, fuels and gases. Some jobs involve both. A local team can explain which applies to your situation.
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 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 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 much does hazmat cleanup cost?
The hazmat cleanup cost depends on the material, the amount, the spread and the disposal fees. Published ranges vary widely. The local team gives a real price after it sees the site or hears the details. Ask what is included and what could change.
