When Emergency Spill Response May Be Necessary

While environmental cleanup often begins after the recovery of the vehicle, there are times when immediate action is needed to contain or minimize damage, such as...
Large spills of vehicle fluids or electrolyte: Engage a cleanup crew if the spill threatens to spread to surrounding areas, especially if it risks entering water systems.
Hazardous runoff from fire suppression efforts: Call an environmental cleanup provider if there’s visible contaminated water pooling around the site.
Widespread contamination beyond the incident site: If contamination spreads to public roads, adjacent properties, or natural areas, prompt emergency response is critical.
