Accidents happen fast, and when they do, having the right spill kit on hand can make all the difference. Whether you’re responding to a leaking battery, a fuel spill on the roadside, or an oil leak in your shop, a properly stocked spill containment kit ensures you can act quickly and safely. Zip’s offers a full selection of oil spill kits, chemical spill kits, universal spill kits, and hazmat spill kits designed for both mobile and facility-based cleanup.

Why Spill Kits Are Essential for Every Operation

Whether you manage a towing fleet, service trucks, or industrial equipment, spill kits are an essential part of workplace and roadside safety. Fluids like oil, fuel, and coolant can create serious hazards, contaminate soil, or violate environmental regulations if not contained quickly.

Having an emergency spill kit on board allows you to:

• Contain and absorb leaks or spills before they spread
• Protect workers and the environment from harmful exposure
• Stay compliant with EPA and OSHA spill response standards
• Prevent costly downtime or fines due to improper cleanup

Choosing the right truck spill kit or shop spill kit ensures you’re prepared for the unexpected, wherever it happens.
