DCHAS-L Discussion List Archive

After a little googling, I was surprised to find very little guidance on line for dealing with a hazmat spill (e.g. a leaking container of drain cleaner or anti-freeze) at home. There are a number of commercial services that will respond to a homeowner's call for a hazmat response, but I suspect that many people would appreciate some guidance that is less expensive than this approach. I think that this topic would be beyond "common sense" for many people but they may not need professional help that is likely to run into the 4 figure range in all of these cases.

I wonder if anyone on the list has a favorite reference for homeowners dealing with these situations?

Thanks for any pointers on this topic.
