About ChemPack & Environmental

ChemPack & Environmental has served Long Beach and the surrounding industrial corridor for years, specializing in environmental testing, hazardous waste disposal, and regulatory compliance for businesses that work with chemicals and controlled substances. The team knows how demanding California's environmental codes can be, especially for operations near the Port of Long Beach. They combine field sampling, laboratory analysis, and documentation support to help clients stay ahead of agency inspections. What sets ChemPack apart is their integrated training program. Through their specialty school division, they offer hands-on instruction for workers who handle hazardous materials, which means you can satisfy Cal/OSHA and EPA documentation requirements without sourcing training from a separate vendor. Their staff holds current certifications in industrial hygiene and environmental compliance, and they stay current with CalEPA and DTSC rule updates so clients aren't caught off guard.

How They Can Help

ChemPack's core services span four main areas. Environmental testing covers soil, water, and air sampling for industrial sites, commercial properties, and facilities undergoing permitting or remediation. They use accredited laboratory methods and can turn around results quickly when regulatory deadlines are tight. Hazardous waste disposal covers everything from routine drum pickups to emergency spill response coordination. ChemPack works with licensed transporters and disposal facilities, handling all the manifest paperwork that trips up facilities trying to manage compliance on their own. They also assist with waste characterization so materials get classified correctly from the start, which avoids costly reclassification fees later. Their OSHA compliance consulting covers written program development, workplace exposure assessments, and audit preparation for Cal/OSHA inspections. This includes hazard communication programs, chemical hygiene plans, and confined space protocols. Finally, through their specialty school, ChemPack delivers HAZWOPER training, DOT hazardous materials transport certification, and site-specific safety orientations. All courses are available in both English and Spanish, which is a practical necessity for many Long Beach industrial operations.

What to Expect

When a new client reaches out, ChemPack starts with a short intake conversation to understand the site type, the regulatory drivers behind the inquiry, and any upcoming deadlines. From there, they'll schedule a site visit, which typically runs two to four hours depending on facility complexity. During the site walkthrough, a certified consultant documents chemical inventories, storage configurations, waste accumulation areas, and any existing safety programs. They look for gaps against applicable Cal/OSHA and CalEPA standards and note areas where documentation is missing or outdated. After the visit, you'll receive a written findings report with prioritized action items and a proposed scope of work for remediation or compliance upgrades. ChemPack doesn't pad scopes with unnecessary services. If you only need one thing fixed, that's what they'll quote. Once work is approved, they handle all agency correspondence, sampling coordination, and disposal logistics on your behalf.

Service Area

ChemPack primarily serves Long Beach and the greater Los Angeles Harbor area, including Carson, Wilmington, San Pedro, Compton, and Torrance. They also take projects in the Inland Empire for larger industrial clients and can travel throughout Southern California for hazardous waste characterization or HAZWOPER training engagements. Most routine site visits are scheduled within a week for facilities within a 30-mile radius of Long Beach.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of businesses does ChemPack typically work with?
ChemPack works with industrial facilities, chemical distributors, logistics companies, auto dealerships and repair shops, manufacturers, and any business that generates hazardous waste or works with regulated substances. Port-adjacent operations in Long Beach and Carson make up a significant portion of their client base.
How quickly can ChemPack respond to an environmental emergency?
For spills or releases requiring immediate response coordination, ChemPack can typically provide guidance within the same business day. They can help you identify the correct emergency responders and assist with agency notification to limit your liability exposure.
Does ChemPack handle all the paperwork for hazardous waste disposal?
Yes. They prepare and manage hazardous waste manifests, land disposal restriction notices, and annual disposal reports. Their documentation support is one of the main reasons clients cite for staying with them long-term.
Are ChemPack's training courses accepted by Cal/OSHA?
Their courses are designed to meet applicable Cal/OSHA and EPA training requirements, and participants receive certificates of completion. For regulated occupations with specific licensing requirements, confirm that the course format meets your agency's documentation standards before booking.
How does ChemPack price its compliance assessments?
Assessments are quoted based on facility size, number of chemical or waste streams, and the regulatory standards that apply. They provide a written scope and fee estimate before any work starts, so there are no surprises on the final invoice.
Can ChemPack help if my facility already received a Cal/OSHA or CalEPA notice of violation?
Yes. They've helped facilities respond to agency citations, develop corrective action plans, and document compliance for inspector follow-up visits. Acting quickly after receiving a notice generally results in better outcomes with the agency.
Does ChemPack offer ongoing compliance support or just one-time assessments?
They offer both. Many clients start with a one-time assessment and move into an ongoing arrangement that includes periodic site visits, regulatory update briefings, and priority response for compliance questions. Retainer pricing varies by service level.
Is ChemPack's laboratory work accredited?
Their environmental testing uses accredited laboratory methods. If you need results submitted to a specific regulatory agency, confirm the accreditation standard required, and ChemPack can verify whether their lab partners meet that requirement.
