Hazmat Cleaning Company Serving Reno and Washoe County

Washoe County has a Relatively High river flood risk rating from FEMA, and floodwater can tip over tanks and drums and carry hazardous materials across a site. Reno is fairly dry, at about 8 inches of precipitation a year, so a spill on soil can linger in place until it is removed.
What hazmat cleanup covers:
- Cleanup after a vehicle accident, tank failure or equipment leak at a business or farm
- Cleaning of pavement, concrete, tile and metal surfaces after a hazardous release
- Response to abandoned drums and containers found at rentals, lots and storage units

What Reno Property Owners Ask About Hazardous Cleanup
What are hazardous cleaning services best for?
They suit any site where a harmful material needs safe removal, from a garage leak to a fleet-yard spill. They are also used before a sale, a lease or an inspection that needs documented cleanup.
Is hazmat cleanup available at night?
Yes. You can call Reno Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 24/7, including nights and weekends. A release does not wait for office hours, and planning can start as soon as you describe the situation.
What is the difference between hazmat and biohazard?
Biohazard usually means materials that carry germs, such as blood and body fluids. Hazmat means materials that are dangerous in other ways, such as chemicals, fuels and gases. Some jobs involve both. A local team can explain which applies to your situation.
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.
What if the spill reached soil or a drain?
Keep people away and call 911 if there is danger. Cleanup teams place barriers and absorbents to stop the spread and remove contaminated soil or materials where needed. Local fire and health officials can say what must be reported.
How do I get rid of hazardous materials?
Do not pour them down a drain or put them in the trash. Keep them in their original containers, away from heat and children, and have a cleanup team collect anything leaking or unknown. Waste must go to a facility that can accept it.
