With a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA, Dallas County can see stored chemicals shift or leak after high water. About 48% of homes in Dallas were built before 1980, and older garages and sheds often hold decades of paint, solvents and pesticides.
The work often covers:
- Labeling of containers and records of what was removed and where it was hauled
- Absorbent materials and barriers placed to stop a spill from spreading
- Cleanup of solvents, paints, fuels, pesticides and pool or farm chemicals
- Hauling of waste to a facility that can legally accept it
- Decontamination of tools, gear and surfaces used during the cleanup

What Urbandale Property Owners Ask About Chemical Cleanup
Does insurance cover chemical spills?
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.
Does a chemical spill have to be reported?
Reporting rules depend on the substance, the amount and where it spilled. The local fire department, the health department or an attorney can say what applies. A cleanup team can explain the work and the records it can provide.
What if I found containers I cannot identify?
Do not open, move or smell them. Keep people and pets away and take photos from a safe distance. A cleanup team can identify the contents, sort them by hazard and set up lawful disposal.
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 do cleanup teams use on a chemical spill?
It depends on the substance. Teams choose absorbent materials, tools and cleaning products to match it, and they follow the maker's safety data sheet. Household products are not mixed together. Ask what the team plans to use and why.
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.
