Knight Division TacticalDoes KDT provide decontamination trailers and decon corridors?
Decontamination Trailers & Decon Corridors
Yes.
KDT provides decontamination trailers and complete decon corridors, set up between the hot and cold zones with wash stations, hot water, wastewater containment and the staff to run them.
Typical configuration
- Layout
- Hot zone → decon corridor in the warm zone → cold zone exit
- Stations
- Equipment drop, gross decon, wash/rinse, PPE removal, final check (typical)
- Trailer
- Enclosed, heated trailer with about 2–6 wash bays, typical
- Water
- On-board water heater and pumps; feed from tanks or a hydrant
- Wastewater
- Captured in containment pools and holding tanks for disposal
- Power
- Generator or shore power, with lighting for night operations
Every hazmat and oil spill site is divided into zones. The hot zone (exclusion zone) is where the contamination is. The cold zone (support zone) is clean, where command, rest and supplies sit. Between them is the warm zone (contamination reduction zone), and that's where the decon corridor goes: a single controlled path that everyone and everything leaving the hot zone has to pass through.
A technical decon corridor runs in stations: tool and equipment drop, gross decon, wash and rinse, PPE removal, and a final check, with a hotline at one end and a clean exit at the other. Decon trailers put that in one heated, lit, enclosed unit with multiple wash bays, a water heater, pumps and holding tanks. For larger numbers of people, mass decon shelters and multi-lane trailers move them through quickly.
KDT sets up the corridor upwind and uphill of the hot zone, stocks it, staffs it with a decon leader and crew, and captures all the wash water for proper disposal. Equipment and vessel decon pads are part of the job on spills, so boats, boom and vehicles get cleaned before they leave.

Questions, answered.
Does KDT provide decontamination trailers and decon corridors?
Yes. We supply decon trailers and full decon corridors, set them up between the hot and cold zones, and staff them with a decon leader and crew.
Where does the decon corridor go?
In the warm zone, between the hot zone and the cold zone, usually upwind and uphill of the contamination. It's the only way out of the hot zone.
What happens to the decon wash water?
It's captured in containment pools and holding tanks, then characterized and disposed of with the rest of the incident waste.
Can you decon vehicles and boats too?
Yes. We set up equipment decon pads for trucks, heavy equipment, boats and boom so they're cleaned before leaving the site.
