Police, firefighters and members of the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection responded to Old New London Road in Salem on Thursday after a box truck carrying water softening chemicals crashed down an embankment.
DEEP spokesman Dennis Schain said the truck got caught on the guardrail and was dangling.
Because it was carrying acids and bases that would react if mixed, DEEP crews were called out to check the containers. Schain said all were intact.
There has been no word on injuries.
