About ToxicTrailers.com
ToxicTrailers.com is dedicated to providing information about formaldehyde poisoning. FEMA and the CDC have now admitted that levels of formaldehyde in FEMA trailers are so high that residents should be moved out quickly. CDC testing revealed unacceptably high formaldehyde levels in all brands of RVs, mobile homes, and park homes. To read which trailers brands tested the highest, go to the Website http://cdc.gov/nceh/ehhe/trailerstudy/. The problem is not confined to RVs and mobile homes, but also can be a significant health threat in regular homes, offices and portable classrooms. If you think you are having problems with formaldehyde, send an e-mail to stories@toxictrailers.com.

FEMA trailers still being sold?
I have not been exposed to formaldehyde from FEMA trailers, but I do want you to know what I was told by an employee who works at the Illinois state and federal surplus warehouse facility in Springfield, Illinois (924 S. 10 1/2 St. 217-785-6903). While visiting there approximately 3 weeks ago, I was told that some of the items in the federal side of the operation were new, untouched overstocks from FEMA / Katrina, including, but not limited to thousands of plastic bottles of "expired" drinking water and FEMA trailers, for sale for only $3,000 each. I have no evidence of formaldehyde in those trailers, and in fact did not ask to see the trailers. My point... The feds may be selling more toxic trailers quietly throughout the U.S. at such facilities, off the radar.
I hope you find this of interest.
