Hazardous Waste Cleanup FAQs for Hildebran and Burke County

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.

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.

Why is mixing cleaning products dangerous?
