Do I need to be home during the pickup?

In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call. Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask if privacy matters.

Is medical waste removal different from biohazard cleanup?

How much does medical waste removal cost?
