Questions About Hazardous Materials Cleanup in Lynnfield, MA
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.
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.
What is hazmat equipment cleaning?
It is the decontamination of tools, gear, machinery and vehicles that touched a hazardous material. Items are cleaned with products suited to the material, and those that cannot be made safe are packed for disposal.
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.
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.
