Questions About Hazardous Materials Cleanup in South Burlingame, Portland, OR
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 long does hazmat cleanup take?
Many jobs take part of a day to a few days. A small spill may be quick. A large release, a soaked site or many unknown containers take longer, and waste pickup can add time. A local team can give a better estimate after seeing the site.

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 are hazardous materials disposed of?
Waste is sorted, labeled, packed and hauled by the rules that apply to its type. It does not go in the regular trash or down a drain. Ask the team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end.
