What Germantown 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.

How do I handle hazardous waste safely?

Wear gloves and eye protection if the label says so, never mix products and keep containers closed. Leave unknown or leaking materials alone and call a professional. A cleanup team can pack and haul the waste lawfully.

Is hazmat cleanup available at night?

Yes. You can call Germantown Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 24/7, including nights and weekends. A release does not wait for office hours, and planning can start as soon as you describe the situation.

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.

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.

What chemicals are used to clean crime scenes?

Crime scene crews mainly use detergents and EPA-registered disinfectants against germs, not harsh industrial chemicals. Hazmat crews choose products to match the hazardous material instead. Products are never mixed, and labels set the contact time.
