Hazmat Cleanup FAQs for Mercedes and Hidalgo County

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.

How do I handle hazardous waste safely?

Wear gloves and eye protection if the label says so, never mix products and keep containers closed. Leave unknown or leaking materials alone and call a professional. A cleanup team can pack and haul the waste lawfully.
