Medical Waste Removal Frequently Asked Questions in Mount Pleasant, SC
Do I need to be home during the pickup?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call. Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask if privacy matters.
How do you dispose of biohazard waste?
Biohazard waste is sorted, sealed in labeled puncture-resistant containers or bags, hauled to a facility that treats regulated medical waste, and then disposed of. Biohazard disposal companies pack it so nothing leaks, and it never goes in the regular trash. A cleanup team can explain each step of the route.
Where can I dispose of biohazard waste?
Options depend on the amount and the place. Some counties and pharmacies have drop-off points for small household sharps. For larger amounts, clinical waste or items from a cleanup, a biohazard pickup service takes the waste to a proper facility. The local health department can describe local programs.
What if I find needles at a vacant property?
Stay back and keep others away. Do not pick up the needles. Note where they are and call a cleanup team or the local health department. A team can sweep the property, collect every sharp and haul the waste away.
How should I store sharps until the team arrives?
Leave the items where they are if you can, and keep people and pets away. Do not try to move loose needles by hand. When you call, ask whether the team can bring a container, and follow its advice. If anyone is stuck, wash the area and get medical care.
What about old medicine?
Medicine is usually kept apart from medical waste. A pharmacy, a take-back program or the local health department can say what applies where you live. A cleanup team can tell you whether it takes medicine or only sharps and clinical waste.
