What is the difference between hazmat and biohazard?
Biohazard usually means materials that carry germs, such as blood and body fluids. Hazmat means materials that are dangerous in other ways, such as chemicals, fuels and gases. Some jobs involve both. A local team can explain which applies to your situation.
What if I find unlabeled drums on a property?
Do not open, move or smell them. Keep people and pets away and take photos from a safe distance. You can get a cleanup team to identify the contents, sort them by hazard and set up lawful disposal.
What does a hazmat cleaning company do?
