Rules for hazardous residue vary by state, county and city. Waste may need special handling and cannot always go in the regular trash. Ask the local health department or fire department what applies.
Ask what training the crew has, how it disposes of waste, how it documents the work and what protective gear it uses. A good company explains the plan before work starts.
Tell the landlord or property manager right away. The lease and local law decide who pays. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can explain.
