Types of Medical Waste We Handle
Healthcare facilities produce various types of medical waste, each requiring special handling to minimize safety risks. Our team manages the following types of medical waste:
Pathological Waste
Pathological waste includes human and animal organs, tissues, and bodily fluids. This type of waste needs to be stored and handled with care to prevent disease transmission.
Sharps Waste
Sharps are objects that can puncture the skin and spread diseases. We offer collection and mail-back options for sharps generators. We recommend regularly scheduled collection for large-volume generators.

Pharmaceutical waste includes expired, leftover, and contaminated drugs. When handling pharmaceutical waste, our team follows strict protocols to ensure compliance and keep your facility safe.
Chemotherapy Waste
Our chemotherapy waste disposal service is designed for waste generated during chemotherapy treatments and covers materials that have come into contact with chemotherapy agents.
