  • Sorting and repacking of damaged, leaking and unlabeled containers by hazard type

How Crews Contain, Remove and Dispose of Hazardous Materials in Elkhart

The team arrives in an unmarked vehicle, checks in with the owner and secures the area. Suits go on at the edge of the work zone.

2. Gear up and set the zone

Chemical-resistant suits, gloves, eye protection and respirators go on as the hazard requires. The work zone is marked and ventilation is managed.

3. Contain and remove

Barriers and absorbents stop the material from spreading. The product, damaged containers and contaminated items are collected in suitable sealed containers.
