Hazardous Waste Removal for Arrowhead Beach and Chowan County Property Owners

Chemical cleanup is the use of protective gear, absorbent materials and suitable products to remove a harmful substance from a floor, a surface or the ground. The method depends on what the substance is.

About 51% of homes in Chowan County were built before 1980, and older garages and sheds often hold decades of paint, solvents and pesticides. Chowan County has a Very Low river flood risk rating from FEMA, but a leak near a drain or ditch can still carry chemicals off a property.

The work often covers:

  • Cleanup of spills that follow a flood, fire or move-out and leave contents unknown
  • Decontamination of tools, gear and surfaces used during the cleanup
  • Sorting and packing of waste by type so incompatible products never meet
  • Hauling of waste to a facility that can legally accept it
  • Removal of leaking, damaged and unlabeled containers from garages, sheds and units

Hazardous Waste Cleanup FAQs for Arrowhead Beach and Chowan County

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.

Can I clean up a chemical spill myself?

Small spills of familiar household products may be manageable with the label's directions. Unknown, large or hazardous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.

How do biological hazards differ from chemical hazards?

Biological hazards come from living things, such as bacteria, viruses and body fluids. Chemical hazards come from substances like solvents, acids, fuels and pesticides. They need different gear, products and disposal, and some jobs involve both.

Does insurance cover chemical spills?

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.

How are chemicals disposed of?

Waste is sorted, labeled, packed and hauled by the rules that apply to its type. It does not go in the regular trash or down a drain. Ask the cleanup team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end.

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.
