How Hazmat Cleanup Works in Huntersville, NC
2. Sort by hazard
Flammables, corrosives, poisons and oxidizers are separated. Anything leaking is packed in secondary containment right away.
3. Collect, clean, treat
Product and contaminated debris come out first. The site and the crew's own equipment are then cleaned with products suited to the material.
4. Pack, label, haul
Different materials are kept apart so they cannot react. Waste leaves the site by the route and rules that apply to its type.
