Ask what training the crew has, how it deals with waste, whether it works with insurers and whether it can provide references. A good company explains the process in plain words. Then decide if the company is the right fit.
Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team at the start if discretion matters, and it will plan the work around that.
The price depends on the size of the area, the type of contamination, the materials affected, odor work and waste hauling. A quote is possible once the crew knows the details. Insurance may cover part of it.

In many cases no. Owners, family members and property managers can set up access with the crew, and the team can work while you are away. Say so when you call if staying elsewhere is easier.
