Dealing With Leaking or Abandoned Chemicals in Palmetto Park, St. Petersburg, FL

Chemical cleanup is the use of protective gear, absorbent materials and suitable products to remove a harmful substance from a floor, a surface or the ground. The method depends on what the substance is.

With a Relatively High river flood risk rating from FEMA, Pinellas County can see stored chemicals shift or leak after high water. Wet weather in Palmetto Park, about 52 inches of precipitation a year, speeds the rusting of old drums and the spread of leaked product.

  • Cleanup of solvents, paints, fuels, pesticides and pool or farm chemicals

What Palmetto Park Property Owners Ask About Chemical Cleanup

What is chemical and toxic waste cleanup?

It is the safe containment, removal and disposal of spilled, leaking or abandoned chemicals. Crews identify the substance and wear suitable protective gear. They contain the spill, clean the area and send waste to a facility that can accept it.

How do biological hazards differ from chemical hazards?

Biological hazards come from living things, such as bacteria, viruses and body fluids. Chemical hazards come from substances like solvents, acids, fuels and pesticides. They need different gear, products and disposal, and some jobs involve both.

Will the cleanup be discreet?

Usually yes. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep the job private. Tell the team at the start if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.

What chemicals can toxic waste cleanup crews remove?

Common ones are paints, solvents, fuels, pesticides, pool chemicals, cleaning products, batteries and mercury. Crews also remove unlabeled containers once the contents are identified. Ask the team what it can handle for your site.

Do biohazard crews clean chemical spills?

Some do, but the work is different. Biohazard cleanup deals with blood, body fluids and germs, while chemical cleanup deals with harmful substances. Ask whether a team has the gear and procedures for the specific chemical before hiring it.

What if a mercury thermometer or lamp breaks?

Open a window if it is safe, leave the room and keep people and pets away. Do not vacuum or sweep mercury, since that spreads it. Call Poison Control with questions, and call a cleanup team if the spill is large.
