Looking at taking a hazmat response job?
Is it really fun and exciting/dangerous?
Or is it mainly a static powerwashing job that is really boring?
Thanks

I'm sure it varies company to company and also clean-up to clean-up. Cleaning up spilled paint and cleaning up overturned tanker with acids or phospherous are nothing alike because the products are very different.
Do you have a perfectly clean driving record, no DUI, no felony, no drug use in last year+, verifiable work history? Ask the employer to have a current employee call you and ask them questions. Recruiters are not reliable and company web sites are not reliable.austinmike, GreenHusker and Tall Mike Thank this. -

I have no idea. I would think fire department would have that at county and state levels. You could probably get a career out of that with an undergrad degree and FD experience. I never thought of that my self.

Depends on where and with whom
