Hazmat Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Kahala, Honolulu, HI
What if I find unlabeled drums on a property?

What is hazmat equipment cleaning?
It is the decontamination of tools, gear, machinery and vehicles that touched a hazardous material. Items are cleaned with products suited to the material, and those that cannot be made safe are packed for disposal.
Do biohazard crews clean chemical spills?
