These services manage the collection, transportation, treatment, and final disposal of various types of medical waste, including infectious, hazardous, and sharps waste.

It also encompasses pathological waste (human tissues or body parts), chemical waste (such as laboratory reagents), pharmaceutical waste (expired or unused medications), and radioactive waste.

      A medical waste bin is specifically designed for the disposal of waste materials that are classified as hazardous or infectious.

Sharps, such as needles, scalpels, and broken glass from medical devices, also go into specialised sharps containers, which are often part of the medical waste disposal system. It’s important to segregate medical waste from general waste to ensure it is treated appropriately and to prevent the risk of contamination or injury.

    • How do you dispose of medical sharps in Sydney?

      In Sydney, medical sharps, such as needles and syringes, should be disposed of in a specially designed sharps container. These containers are puncture-resistant and labelled to ensure safe handling. Once full, the sharps container should be sealed and taken to a local pharmacy, hospital, or community health centre that accepts sharps for safe disposal. Sydney also offers specific sharps disposal services and drop-off points where individuals and healthcare providers can safely dispose of sharps. It’s essential to follow these procedures to prevent injury and contamination, ensuring that sharps are handled and disposed of in a manner that complies with local regulations.
