I’ve been wondering what happens to all that equipment that becomes left on the battlefield after a firefight. Are they just left there or does someone come and clean it all up?

I’ll explain this like you’re five:
There are no “war janitors”. The humans who inhabit the area will be saddled with not only trash, but environmental and health detriments for decades to come.
If you want to be sad, look up the fallout of agent orange and “uranium enriched bombs” which the USA used in Vietnam and Iraq respectively.
The only reason a military would “clean up” would be if there’s value to the physical objects or intellectual property. Like how they blew up the helicopter that crashed during the bin laden raid.
