What Jeffersontown Property Owners Ask About Hazardous Cleanup
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.
What if I find unlabeled drums on a property?
Do not open, move or smell them. Keep people and pets away and take photos from a safe distance. You can get a cleanup team to identify the contents, sort them by hazard and set up lawful disposal.
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 Kentucky?
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.
Is hazmat cleanup available at night?
