You can probably pick up some heavy duty garbage bags, lime and a shovel at your local hardware, but I'm at a loss as to how to deal with the smell.

To answer your question better, anywhere that sells paint can usually supply you with breathing and filtering solutions from cheap to full face.

with or without eye protection?

 

I have two of these - http://www.tooldex.com/ao-safety-50445-00000-ao-5-star-air-purifying-respirators-69824.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwg_afBRD3rpChlqiKt1ESJACwY6NkZlmDZiXX064TRwQYhCgBGH8GEz9i89FXUuHs2LdFMBoCn1Lw_wcB

 

They've been effective at many things, dust and VOCs.  In fact I need to replace the cartridges at this point.

I'm looking for with eye protection, the ones that cover your whole face

Do you have a Sherwin Williams store locally or Benjamin Moore?  They sell full face masks will filter out some nasty paint fumes, so I figure it should filter out several months accumulation of post processed Burritos and frozen dinners.

www.afpnj.com under equipment, full face respirators. Remember different elements for each type of hazard. LOL

Home Depot and Harbor Freight both have them...

Pine Environmental will drop it off free but you need to open an account (5 minutes).

 

McMaster Carr ships next day delivery.

 

Why full face? Need eye protection or increased protection factor?

If you want to borrow one, I have one. You'll need to pick up filter cartridges for it. I won't be home from CA until Friday though.

Also before you do any work, "certify" yourself by putting on the respirator for a few minutes, get your heart rate up, make sure you can still breath properly and are able to remove the mask in a panic.  Would suck to pass out in one when you're by yourself.  Try to find someone with a smoke test kit

LOL, that's neither medical evaluation (29 CFR 1910.134(e)) nor a fit test (29 CFR 1910.134(f)). What "certification" would this be?

It's a quote unquote self certification as in make reasonably sure you're not going to die in the damned thing by performing a couple cursory tests that comprise the bulk of the real OSHA test

must of been a great tenant if requires hazmat gear.

 

Which cartridges you need? VO, Acid gas, particulate, mercury, combo, human corpse?

I don't think Harbor Freight has full face masks....

 

Maybe try an Army/Navy store for a surplus gas mask?  Lol.

Sportmans Guide. .not local but cheap..

Grainger. I order them all the time for work. You need to know what cartridge you need. 

Try your local auto body supply shop.

Grainger has them in stock thats where I bought mine.

There are different filters for different tasks. Can you provide us with more information as to what environment you'll be working in? Potential biological, or chemical threats?

 

Working in a former meth lab?

I have one you could borrow also but you'd have to get it before I go on vacation. I have a few GME-P100 combo cartridges but they're old (unused but old...not sure if they expire)
