Inside a Chemical Spill Cleanup Job in Murphys, CA

The team checks every room, shelf and corner where containers may be hiding. It counts and photographs what it finds before touching anything.

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.

4. Verify and transport

The team inspects the cleaned area and explains what was done. Waste leaves the property in labeled containers for lawful disposal.
