Hazardous Waste Removal for Penndel and Bucks County Property Owners
Toxic waste cleanup is the removal of poisonous or harmful materials from a property. These include solvents, pesticides, fuels, mercury and unlabeled products, and each needs its own packing and disposal.

With vacancy at about 3% of homes in Bucks County, chemical problems are usually found quickly by residents or neighbors. Wet weather in Penndel, about 51 inches of precipitation a year, speeds the rusting of old drums and the spread of leaked product.

- Cleaning of concrete, tile, shelving and equipment with products suited to the substance
- Identification of unknown liquids, powders and containers using labels and safety data sheets

What Penndel Property Owners Ask About Chemical Cleanup
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.
How long does chemical cleanup take?
Many jobs take part of a day to a few days. A small spill may be quick. A large release, a soaked site or many unknown containers take longer, and waste pickup can add time. A local team can give a better estimate after seeing the site.
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.
Can chemicals be left in a garage or shed?
Old or leaking products are a risk. Heat, humidity and age can damage containers, and fumes can build up. If containers are leaking, damaged or unlabeled, have a cleanup team remove them.
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 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.
