Usable goods go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, broken or unsafe items go to disposal, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.

That depends on the plan. Some jobs end broom-clean, and others include deep cleaning, disinfecting and odor treatment. Ask the team to say exactly what the job covers before work starts.

Usually the owner. For an estate, the estate pays or the cost comes from the sale of the house. Family members sometimes share it. In a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant.
