A chemical spill cleanup begins with identifying the substance and ends with waste hauled to a facility that can accept it. In between, crews contain the spread, remove soaked materials and clean the affected area.

Fewer homes in Lexington sit empty, so chemical calls tend to come from occupied properties with leaking garage or shed containers. Wet weather in Copperfield, about 50 inches of precipitation a year, speeds the rusting of old drums and the spread of leaked product.

The work often covers:

  • Cleaning of concrete, tile, shelving and equipment with products suited to the substance
  • Sorting and packing of waste by type so incompatible products never meet
  • Labeling of containers and records of what was removed and where it was hauled
  • Containment of leaks and spills so they do not reach drains, soil or other rooms
  • Cleanup of solvents, paints, fuels, pesticides and pool or farm chemicals

Chemical and Toxic Waste Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Copperfield, Lexington, KY

Can I clean up a chemical spill myself?

Small spills of familiar household products may be manageable with the label's directions. Unknown, large or hazardous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.

Does a chemical spill have to be reported?

Reporting rules depend on the substance, the amount and where it spilled. The local fire department, the health department or an attorney can say what applies. A cleanup team can explain the work and the records it can provide.

Is chemical waste the same as hazmat?

The terms overlap. Hazmat usually refers to the wider set of hazardous materials, and chemical and toxic waste describes leftover or spilled chemicals. Both call for careful handling. A local team can explain which term fits your situation.

What are the health risks of chemical exposure?

Chemicals can irritate or burn skin and eyes, harm the lungs and poison people who swallow them. Some give off fumes or catch fire. Call 911 in an emergency and Poison Control for exposure questions, and tell them the product name if known.

How are chemicals 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 cleanup team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end.

How much does chemical waste cleanup cost?
