Does a quote include cleanup and waste disposal?

Often yes for reasonable, standard project-related cleanup, though this genuinely varies between contractors — worth confirming explicitly rather than assuming a universal standard applies.

Waste disposal (excess concrete, offcuts, packaging) is typically included as part of a properly professional service, though larger-scale disposal (significant excavated spoil, for instance) is usually addressed as its own line item given the volumes involved.

A properly detailed quote should specify what cleanup and disposal is included — if this isn’t clear in what you’ve received, asking directly avoids any surprise about scope once work is complete.
