Hazardous Waste Removal for Ellis and Ellis County Property Owners

Chemical waste disposal means moving leftover or contaminated chemicals to a facility that can accept them. Waste does not belong in household trash or down a drain, because it can harm people and the environment.

If harmful chemicals sit in your garage, shed, unit or yard in Ellis, call Ellis Biohazard Cleanup Help. You get a careful team that keeps the site tidy and explains how waste is hauled.

Older housing is common in Ellis, around 65% built before 1980, so leftover chemicals turn up when homes are cleared out or sold. With vacancy at about 8% of homes in Ellis County, chemical problems are usually found quickly by residents or neighbors.

  • Cleanup of solvents, paints, fuels, pesticides and pool or farm chemicals
  • Cleaning of concrete, tile, shelving and equipment with products suited to the substance
  • Safe collection of broken lamps, thermometers and other items that contain mercury
  • Containment of leaks and spills so they do not reach drains, soil or other rooms
  • Labeling of containers and records of what was removed and where it was hauled
