Sharps containers los angeles

The U. Mail-Back Service. Many sharps manufacturers offer mail-back services for their products, contact them directly for disposal options.

You can find many sharps manufacturers have already provided CalRecycle with their Disposal Plan and options. Needle exchange programs may accept unused sharps in their original unopened packaging—but call first to confirm.

If reuse options are not available, the steps above should also be used to dis-pose of unused sharps. Businesses generating small amounts of sharps waste may find mail-back services to be most cost-effective compared to contracting with an authorized medical waste transporter.

Improper sharps disposal can affect janitors, maids, pest control workers, groundskeepers, waste management workers, and children or household pets among others. JavaScript is required for this site to operate correctly. Please enable Javascript in your web browser and then refresh this page.

Feather River Health Center. We're thrilled to offer a comprehensive program that provides practical solutions for patients including the ability to receive a no-cost, FDA-cleared sharps container for LA County residents in need, regardless of their sharps provider. The robust infrastructure of LA County made it the ideal region to start this initiative, and ultimately we hope to expand this effort through further collaboration with industry leaders.
