A typical hazmat cleanup job includes:
The team arrives in an unmarked vehicle, checks in with the owner and secures the area. Suits go on at the edge of the work zone.

Drains are covered where needed and ignition sources are controlled. The crew works from clean areas toward the source and collects the material.
Surfaces and equipment are cleaned with methods suited to the material. Waste is labeled, sorted by type and hauled by the rules that apply.

Some do, but the work is different. Biohazard cleanup deals with blood and germs, while hazmat deals with harmful substances. Ask whether a team has the gear and procedures for the specific material before hiring it.
Small spills of familiar products may be manageable by following the label. Large, unknown or dangerous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.
Ask what training the crew has, how waste is managed and what records you get. Request references and a clear description of the steps. Then decide whether the company fits your site.
