- This week we travel to Lancaster County, PA to check out Hazmat 2's Hazmat rig! This truck has everything that is needed to clean up a hazmat chemical spill. Instead of just touring their one truck, we decided to see everything in their fleet! Hazmat 2 does a great job protecting the community! If you are interested in learning more or volunteering at Hazmat 2 Environmental Fire Rescue, please check them out at hazmat2.org/

Wow…props to this guy, and his team, to operate with so much safety and technology, all with a volley dept. imagine if every region had this capability. Yeah, I know funding and costs are not always available, but just imagine if it was possible.
Thanks for watching and commenting
This guy is really knowledgeable. Maybe you should go back for part 2 and show some of the training these guys do?
Take a peek at our Facebook for some training tips.
facebook.com/HazMat2/
Maybe we can do a day in the life video with one of their drill nights
Anytime! Let us know when you want to come back!
@@hazmat2environmentalfirere479 Awesome to see that kind of equipment! Im the second in charge of a german HazMat group and we allready took a lot knowledge and experience from the brothers in the states for our unit (decon skills/techniques and some equipment) because it isnt a big theme in germany, because you always have the "Joker" calling the specialists from the "Chemical Industry Firedepartments" but thats not working at every time. Would be awesome to see a drill night from you, your suits you are talking about in this episode and more and more knowledge from you :-) Stay safe and if it is possible for me next year on my trip to the state (Texas is my first target for visiting a FD there) i would take a ride to you guys and talk with you (maybe take a part of your drills, if possible) and spent some time with you guys! Greetings from Germany! Carry on :-)
Yeah seeing a complete training from start to end with everything included whould be awesome.
If i was a local i'd be at peace knowing that this was my hazmat fire company. They clearly know their stuff and this guy was so knowledgeable i was impressed on how he explained everything and you can tell he loves to educated.
Mr Walker was a book of knowledge that is hard to capture on camera. He was great to work with too
Thanks! It was great to have you at the station! Come back anytime!
Tbh I don’t know how much our county uses hazmat, I know of at least two within the couple years but mostly all our normal rescues and engines etc carry their own hazmat stuff
It was a pleasure having you at our home!
We appreciate the work you guys do. Hope to work with you again on another video of a day in the life.
The idea of selling patches is just brilliant!! Regards from a fifteen-year-old Spanish patch collector who would be honored to have one.
Keep up the amazing work!
Lancaster county has the best fire departments and trucks! Love it
This was worth watching the whole 45minutes lots to see lots to listen to (even if I didn't understand some of the technical side of hazmat).
Hazmat is a very interesting subject.
Basic level of hazmat what I'm used to is wearing and gaining info for a hazmat officer.
I heard you speak about time, I don't think you should worry as it was a very informative video.
Well done.
This means a lot thank you for watching. Please feel free to share like and subscribe, those will help us grow and see more stations around the world
Got no idea how I ended up here. I live in Liverpool, UK. My father worked for the London Fire Brigade Scientific Support Unit(basically their Hazmat Unit). Loved this video, always had a sweetspot for the weird and niche fire service vehicles
I don't care how long it is... I loved how much was packed in this episode!
Thanks for watching
I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST SUBSCRIBED, YOU SAID "BE READY FOR ANYTHING" ! THEY ARE ! BLOWN AWAY ! GO AHEAD BROTHER !🇺🇲
Thank you for watching make sure to share these videos to help us continue the mission. Because of you we are able to keep moving forward
Great video! It was longer, and I could tell you seemed a little nervous at times about how long it was going for, but it was definitely all worth the time. Super interesting and well made video all around. Definitely earned a like on this one.
Thank you for watching we appreciate it and will continue to try to bring more quality content
Just completed the HAZWOPER 24hr Training! If you have the opportunity to take training like this, it's definitely worth it! You really get to appreciate what Hazmat units have to deal with on a daily basis.
Very interesting, I never knew there was a 24/7 Volunteer Haz Mat team like that.
27 yrs in the service and I never knew either
@@HeroesNextDoor LanCo is a bit different than most places. Hazmat Company 2 is volunteer. TO my knowedge, so is Forestry Tasaskforce from Keystone Wildfire Crew, and IF They're still a thing? Mount Joy Forest FIre Company 93, Northern Lancaster County Forest Fire Company 92, Middle Creek SAR Company 94, PA Canine SAR Team 95, PA Wilderness Team 96, and the Airport Fire Company 97
most of the counties in Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia have volunteer teams with paid duty chiefs
When I first got out of college with my degree in Fire Science Engineering and Technology from West Virginia State University in '86, my first "grown up" job was in the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) in Greenbelt, MD. as a Trainee Insurance Special Investigator in Fire and Fraud. I lived in Annapolis, MD and was a Volunteer Lieutenant with Eastport Co 36 of the Annapolis Fire Department.
During the summer of '87, my older sister and I took a weekend trip to Lancaster County for the area's Volunteer Fire Department Auction and Quilt Sales. Absolutely loved it all, up there.
Nice Story
@@BillyBob-dd7wb thanks
Thanks for sharing. This is why this channel exists
@@HeroesNextDoor indeed!! After over 27yrs service, this old smoke eater has hung up his bunkers and put away my helmet. I brought my son (just turned 28) into the Volunteer Fire Service in Southern West Virginia (home) and he's now a County Paramedic for Putnam County EMS and Kanawha County Emergency Ambulance Authority. Just like his old man, he came up as a Junior and now has 12yrs in as FF, 4 yrs as a Paramedic.
But, I still keep my hand in it a bit. Even if it's taking pictures, lol.
Your Channel is the best Fire Fighter Channel on TH-cam in the World 👍 Regards from Germany
We appreciate it and thank you for watching make sure to like and share
I have a customer who is a member of this company. It was a trip to see the patch that I have on my wall!
This is such an awesome fire company! 23:05 I love that Rob made a reference to a popular game. Even if he has never played it and don't know much about it, the fact that he makes an accurate reference so the audience understands shows just how in touch with the community he is.
Oh we both know the reference 😉
22:58 "that among us game" is my favorite part of this entire video.
Love seeing you guys film in my hometown
Outstanding Video! I know it was longer thank you typically like but dealing with the specialty of the equipment and reasoning behind it was worth the length! Thanks!
Thank you for watching we appreciate it. Don’t for get to share and like. Believe it or not that really helps up move forward to other stations
They cover a huge area and can face significant travel times and distances depending on the incident location. They're based out of the Lancaster County Public Safety Training Center near Salunga which in the Western part of Lancaster County. Thus, it's a bit of a hike for them if they have to respond somewhere in the Eastern part of the county, especially somewhere such as Ephrata/Denver/New Holland.
I love the fact that they have stream decks in the command post, they have so many uses.
Don’t work in medicine or emergency services but I loooove these videos
Thanks for watching we appreciate it
My buddy from over the bridge said that there firefighter 1 course goes over and has exams on hazmat awareness and hazmat ops (NJ) really good idea as hazmat is usually something usually looked over
Just a glimpse at that thumbnail and I knew exactly where you were at Mike!
Thanks for watching
@@HeroesNextDoor They are a few minutes away from me.
Always great to see local coverage
What a great video, deep insight view of these HAZMAT Company. We could feel Rob's passion for HAZMAT.
Thanks for sharing!
Never even thought about how hazmat fire teams operate, what a treat this was!
what a great video! it was informative and detailed and i appreciate the little stories and examples you added throughout the conversation
Thank you for watching we appreciate the comments. Please make sure to hit the like and share buttons
VERY IMPRESSIVE !!!! WOW...
It sure was. We were not expecting this in depth look when we booked them
"f-550 , what would you need that fo" *camera pans* "holy shit"
What an amazing org! And that guy is incredible!
Very impressive. Alot of great ideas
Wow I’m blown away awesome!
Outstanding video Heroes Next Door!!
Thank you
Great overview, awesome. Thank you for your videos about HAZMAT units. Greetings from Poland
Thank you for watching. Make sure to like share and subscribe
Outstanding video!! Don't worry about time!!
Thanks we appreciate that. We try to follow the analytic from TH-cam but I definitely see your point. Please remember to like and share the video too those helps us move forward and see more stations
Loved this video, despite never being interested in this kinda stuff, or living in America. Also him mentioning among us gave me whiplash.
Thank you for watching and make sure to subscribe share and like because it helps us keep bringing you more cool content
Holy cow man thats amazing, I wish we could see the trucks with lights on
Maybe next time when we schedule a day in the life video ?
Superb video… your best one yet! Keep up the great work :)
From Colin in the UK
Thank you. We are always trying to improve
Nice squad and all volunteer. Amazing. Also, Level A suits in July, I'm never doing that again even if you pay me.
Great job Lancaster hazmat team
Wow never have I seen a hazmat station lol at the stations I volunteered for hazmat stuff was limited. I didn't get my hazmat certification as of yet but definitely don't want to do it unless I felt safe about it.
These guys got things most departments wish they had for hazmat.
Great video again Mike!
Thanks for watching
This is verry intresting and verry good to know.
Im from the Netherlands and we also have almost everything but i never knew or seen such as a hazmet or seen the aquipment they use.
America is well forseen compliments!👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent video. I am hooked on your videos. Keep up the great job.
Thanks for watching and make sure to like/share/subscribe it helps us build where we can go
I would love to join this team. They just follow their passion. They are awesome and this job is honourable. Greetings and huge respect from Baku
I would love, love, love if you did a podcast with Rob. He seems to really enjoy what he does and has a lot of knowledge.
Maybe we can invite him to a talk on our Around the Fire Table series
@@HeroesNextDoor That would be wonderful!
Anytime. :)
Wow, that was super interesting and amazing it’s all volunteers
I leave for my CBRN training in late May, so I will be getting some good hazmat training soon.
Study hard and thanks for your service
Very informing video
Nice vid. In my country (Germany) I don’t know of any department specializing only on HAZMAT, cool to see this, helps with the whole certification problem.
Yes, Germany does have Hazmat only units.
Mike you find interesting assets for the communities you visit! If people only knew!
Thanks
I love your channel. Fire police or EMS was always my dream job as a kid. A disability would keep my from it. I have always loved anything to do with apparatus. I have always loved tv shows like emergency code red (1980s) and Chicago fire although some of that is so not real. Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks for watching Hope we can continue to meet your expectations
Since they are in PA, 26:38, should be to keep the Yuengling cold 🙂
Seeing how different the US operates is always very interesting, Hazmat is integrated into the normal firedepartment structure of every county in Germany. But moreover I'm always baffled by the system the US finances its fireprotection by. Just had to think about it when you where talking about how they finance themselves.
While some areas have huge (imo sometimes oversized) paid departmenst other areas are fearing bankruptcy and not because they overspend but just because there is no money.
In 90% of areas, hazmat is run by the fire department in the US. Some places may have dedicated hazmat units separate from the fire service. Pittsburgh has a Hazmat team composed of members from the fire, police, and ambulance bureaus. This team, LanCo Hazmat 2, started as a collaboration between four volunteer fire departments before it split and became its own agency.
They had me at "not a single guy gets paid".
Amazing video! Next time please don't rush as myself and lot of people want to know an in-depth look of the equipment on each rig
I just try to follow the rules of TH-cam algorithms. I do see your point.
@@HeroesNextDoor nah i can understand that, can you possibly give a hint on the next what's inside? 👀
Great content tho
Last time Haz had to be called to my area was when a tanker loaded with diesel gas jackknifed. He spilt diesel all over the road and into a pit where the truck stop is now. that area is still contaminated with diesel to this day although most of it was cleaned up.
You should come to Lewistown pa and visit haritige fire co
this is my home state hell yeah i don't live Too Far from Lancaster they Def got some sweet units
Cool vid. My noties worked this time.
Thanks for watching
Likeeeeee from Brazil 👍 🇧🇷
The county I live in the HazMat is members of the various fire departments and County Emergency Management has a trailer with the more severe equipment. Not many hazmat calls happen that requires more than the absorbent equipment carried by all departments.
That’s true. Many HazMat incidents are small and easily managed, but they can quickly grow in scope and severity. That is when the HazMat team responds.
Cool episode. Love the channel and would love to see a station cribs on Christiana fire company’s new station in Newcastle county Delaware. However, I’m not affiliated with the fire company in any way.
Maybe one day
You should check out Carolina beach fire department in North Carolina
Can't wait to see a fire medical X-ray truck or a MRI scanner unit!
We had a CT truck scheduled however because of COVID they canceled. We are looking for a replacement
I was hoping to see one of their special made suits that were mentioned.
Yeah we missed it. Sorry. We did mention it and the forgot. Maybe I can have them send a pic to our fb page and we can see it.
I watch on a big screen so it's impossible to comment, but I do enjoy your videos, and you always get a thumbs up. I'd give you two, but...
I worked in a chemical plant for a while and am familiar with hazmat, A,B,C, and PPE, and most of the precautions and so on,. One thing in this video that intrigued me was the use of a drone. Actually, I was wondering about the drone in explosive environments. I suppose (assume) that LEL is checked (didn't recall seeing an exposiometer) or the nature of the hazards material is known and that determines if the drone can be used; or is it a sealed drone? Decontamination of the drone would be interesting too.
Thank you for your interest! We view the craft as a tool instead of putting our members in harms way.
@@hazmat2environmentalfirere479 Have you guys mounted meters on the drones yet?
@@ClayinSWVA yes, we have experimented with that.
Boston Dynamics Spot would be perfect for them.
I noticed that their fuel tanks outside don't have containment containers around them. Are they built in to the fuel tank?
2-3 is a mobile command post - almost - when you don't need 2-1
Absolutely!
Heroes Next Door come to Newman CA volunteer fire dept and also check out all the volunteer stations in Central Valley CA.
Send us that official invite and we can get started on the planning 😉
@@HeroesNextDoor is their a form on a website to submit?
@@davemaison8380 no just a standard email with information on it like locations contacts and basic hx of the station as rigs
You should check out some departments in Maryland!
We just need invites. We would love to come
Green and yellow together on one rig to me is the mark of excellence. The mark of workmanship. And the deer emblem just seals it for me. The first time I drove a John Deere Gator, the XUV855D to be precise, I was in love! I was sold on it! The XUV855D has become my workhorse. I haul stone, a water tank, and so much more, including rocks for sorting and painting.
What kind of radios would you be using because I can only imagine its not always safe to have RF signals on a hazmat situation.
There are multiple different communications types. We use radios that are intrinsically safe, which means they are safe to use in explosive environments.
The ac on that truck is on backwards lol
But these guys in the heart of Amish country know how to run a volunteer HAZMAT station-a dedicated HAZMAT station-even in the midst of a global pandemic.
That trailer is packed FULL!! How much does it weigh?
Great question I’m sorry I did not ask that one
The trailer weighs just about 10,000 lbs. A lot of the booms and pads take up a great deal of space but are not overly heavy. In fact one of the hardest parts about the trailer is balancing the weight for safe transport.
@@bherskowitz Thanks, I was just wondering because I know the Ford F550 can tow a bunch of weight.
@@HeroesNextDoor Thanks. The trailer just looks so heavy I had to ask. lol
1:50 cram 10lbs of stuff in 5lb bag lol. The way I pack things is like packing 80lbs of laundry in a 50lb capacity washer 😂
Was that a Saulsbury tag on the body of the Simon-duplex truck?
Yes, Its a Saulsbury body on a Simon chassis
In Mexico they call the gator the raptor
What’s a duty officer?
Alright you got me, I want in over with these guys lol
The should sell that 10 minute wash down station
Looks like they can handle almost all kinds of chemical emergencies except for radiological materials or nuclear hazards
They can do those too
Do a tour of any FDNY station.
This is a fan request
We are trying to get an invite. As soon as that happens we will. Thank you for watching and stay tuned
Are level A suits ...a rebreather steal supply
Can you do a station cribs on a fire station that is at the airport?
We have been asking but we have not had any responses. We will continue to try
@@HeroesNextDoor Mike, Have you tried contacting Pittsburgh International Airport Fire Dept. in Western PA?. It is a good station and packed with trucks. You would love it. I did some ARFF training with them years ago.
An old timer once said "Paper doesn't need batteries."
Great video! (Although I don't think that the interviewer understands the notion of the "canary in the coal mine"-drones don't drop over dead under asphyxiating conditions, and canaries aren't very good at relaying intel.)
🤔
Police Officers are sometimes referred to as "copomitors."
😜
Please ask Farmington volunteer fire Dept also known as pumpkin hook fire department it’s nice and I have never seen a vid in ny
Maybe one day.
@@HeroesNextDoor “one day”
What happened to the driver's side of the truck and front of the trailer? 1:26 1:33
The scrape on the box was a mishap a while back and the gouge in the trailer was an unavoidable accident after getting the trailer into a place where it couldn't be moved without a little damage. Both are slated to be repaired, but COVID slowed our process.
What was behind the hazmat 2.?
The black trailer is a multi-purpose trailer.
Hey you can maybe come over to our fire station we have loads of cool truck
Where are you?
check out salisbury fire department in salisbury md
Have them send an invite to watchheroesnextdoor @ gmail.com so we can make that happen
41:33 What is inside the safe????
That’s the narcotic safe… they either have to locked up or kept on your person at all times
Only issue with that gator is the brand.
Need a new bolt for the seat, sorry, John Deer wont sell you the part, but they will fix it for you for $5,000
9150 black ambulance☠️💀
For the EMTs: When filling out your reports just remember that HAZMAT teams are highly trained professionals not "glow worms".
😂🤣
