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.
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.
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.
