I need to find additional resources for Hazardous waste removal - We are currently cleaning out labs and have had success without waste contractor coming in and removing the waste . Recently we found a freezer that needed to have all of the chemicals removed - all treated as hazardous waste due to how long they had been in freezer and this is a lab that was forgotten . The contractor came the removal was a Highly Hazardous  situation, they removed a portion of the chemicals but left the majority. What are my options to get this cleaned up when the waste contractor in charge of removing waste picks and chooses what they want to remove.

Thanks you for any information
