Who pays for hazmat cleanup in South Carolina?
The person or business that caused a release is often responsible, and owners usually carry the cost on their own property. After a vehicle accident, ask whether another party's insurer or a carrier is involved. In a rental, the lease and local law decide.
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.
Do biohazard crews clean chemical spills?
Some do, but the work is different. Biohazard cleanup deals with blood and germs, while hazmat deals with harmful substances. Ask whether a team has the gear and procedures for the specific material before hiring it.
How do I choose a hazmat cleanup company?
Ask what training the crew has, how waste is managed and what records you get. Request references and a clear description of the steps. Then decide whether the company fits your site.
