What Millen Property Owners Ask About Hazardous Cleanup
Can I clean up a hazardous spill myself?
Small spills of familiar products may be manageable by following the label. Large, unknown or dangerous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.
What if a fuel or oil leak happens at my business?
Stop the source only if it is safe, keep people away and call 911 if there is fire risk or danger. A cleanup team contains the leak, removes soaked material and cleans pavement and equipment. It can also provide records for the insurer.
Can a landlord order hazmat cleanup after a move-out?
Yes. Many calls come from managers who find chemicals or leaking containers in a vacated unit. The lease and local law decide who pays, and the crew can provide photos and records.
Who responds to the emergency first?
Fire and emergency crews respond to immediate dangers, so call 911 first. They make the scene safe. Cleanup usually follows once they release the site. You can then get a cleanup team for removal, cleaning and disposal, and learn what records to keep.
Does insurance cover hazmat cleanup?
It depends on the policy. Some cover sudden spills, and many exclude pollution or long-term leaks. Read your policy and call the insurance company before cleanup starts, then take photos from a safe spot and keep every receipt.
Who pays for hazmat cleanup in Georgia?
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.
