What is hazmat cleanup?

It is the safe handling, removal and disposal of hazardous materials after a spill, leak or release. Crews identify the material and wear suitable protective gear. They contain the spread, clean the area and send waste to a facility that can accept it.

They suit any site where a harmful material needs safe removal, from a garage leak to a fleet-yard spill. They are also used before a sale, a lease or an inspection that needs documented cleanup.
