You describe the waste, where it is and who can reach it. The team explains what it can pick up and how access can be arranged.

Each item is placed in the right container, sealed and labeled. Loose pieces are found with a careful sweep of the area.
Floors, shelves or drawers that held the waste are disinfected with EPA-registered products, and any odor is addressed.
