Arroyo Grande Toxic Waste Questions, Answered

Does a chemical spill have to be reported?

Reporting rules depend on the substance, the amount and where it spilled. The local fire department, the health department or an attorney can say what applies. A cleanup team can explain the work and the records it can provide.

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 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.

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 a landlord order chemical cleanup after a move-out?

Yes. Many calls come from managers who find drums, jugs or unlabeled containers in a vacated unit. The lease and local law decide who pays, and the crew can provide photos and records.

Will the cleanup be discreet?

Usually yes. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep the job private. Tell the team at the start if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.
