What chemical & toxic waste cleanup covers:
The crew leader asks about the site, the people nearby and any concerns about privacy. Gear and containers are packed to match what the owner describes.
Products are separated by type, such as flammables, corrosives and poisons. Leaking containers are placed in secondary containment right away.
Hazardous material, empty containers and soaked items go into sealed drums or bags. Hard surfaces are cleaned, and porous materials that soaked up the substance are removed.
Surfaces are cleaned with methods suited to the substance. Waste is labeled, sorted by type and hauled by the rules that apply.
The cost of chemical & toxic waste cleanup in Dry Ridge, KY depends on the amount of material, how it is packed and how it is hauled.
Unknown containers take more time. When labels are missing, crews must identify the contents before they can pack and move them, and that work adds hours.
