Fewer homes in Bellflower sit empty, so chemical calls tend to come from occupied properties with leaking garage or shed containers. Bellflower is fairly dry, at about 12 inches of precipitation a year, so a chemical spill on soil may linger in place until it is removed.

- Decontamination of tools, gear and surfaces used during the cleanup
- Identification of unknown liquids, powders and containers using labels and safety data sheets
- Removal of leaking, damaged and unlabeled containers from garages, sheds and units
- Cleanup of solvents, paints, fuels, pesticides and pool or farm chemicals

What Bellflower Property Owners Ask About Chemical Cleanup
Why is mixing cleaning products dangerous?
Some products release toxic gas when combined. Bleach and ammonia are a well-known example. Never mix products to clean a spill, and leave the area if you smell fumes.
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.
What are the health risks of chemical exposure?
Chemicals can irritate or burn skin and eyes, harm the lungs and poison people who swallow them. Some give off fumes or catch fire. Call 911 in an emergency and Poison Control for exposure questions, and tell them the product name if known.
Is toxic waste cleanup available at night?
You can reach Bellflower Biohazard Cleanup Help 24/7, including nights and weekends. A leak does not wait for office hours, and planning can start as soon as you describe the situation.
What should I do first after a chemical spill?
Get everyone away from the area, including pets. Call 911 if anyone is in danger, or Poison Control with exposure questions. Do not touch unknown containers or try to wash a spill away. Then call a cleanup team for next steps.
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.
