Harbor Isle Toxic Waste Questions, Answered

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.

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.

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.

What if I found containers I cannot identify?

Do not open, move or smell them. Keep people and pets away and take photos from a safe distance. A cleanup team can identify the contents, sort them by hazard and set up lawful disposal.

Can a landlord order chemical cleanup after a move-out?

Yes. Many calls come from managers who find drums, jugs or unlabeled containers in a vacated unit. The lease and local law decide who pays, and the crew can provide photos and records.

Who pays for chemical cleanup in New York?

The person or business that caused a spill is often responsible, and owners usually carry the cost on their own property. In a rental, the lease and local law decide. Some teams offer payment plans.
