Massive Tractor Trailer Recovery and Cleanup After Diesel Fuel Spill
Bigler Boyz Towing & Recovery swiftly responded with tractor trailer recovery after an incident involving a tractor trailer on I-80, precisely at mile marker 135.6 in the eastbound direction. The unfortunate mishap resulted in the tractor and trailer crashing through the guard rails and tumbling down an embankment, ultimately coming to a rest in the wetland area of Brown’s Run.
To ensure the safety of everyone at the scene, they promptly activated its signboard, instructing oncoming traffic to move over and provide enough space to assess the situation. The accident had caused the fuel tanks on the tractor to rupture, leading to the unfortunate fuel spillage into the nearby wetland.
Adding to the complexity of the situation, trees obstructed the driver’s side of the tractor and the passenger side of the trailer. The tractor was partially submerged in mud and water, while the trailer was precariously positioned above the wetland.
Given the extensive recovery and cleanup required, it was decided that a lane closure would be necessary. Bigler Boyz Towing & Recovery took the initiative to contact the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation to arrange for a lane closure. Over the course of a few weeks, the Bigler Boyz team cleaned up the diesel fuel spill, using absorbent materials and excavating contaminated areas.
The services provided by Bigler Boyz Towing & Recovery and Bigler Boyz Enviro included tractor trailer recovery, diesel fuel spill cleanup, backfilling, and transportation and disposal of contaminated soil. Huge thanks to the entire team!
