Regulated medical waste includes potentially infectious materials like used PPE, blood-contaminated items, and laboratory waste. At Secure Waste, we prioritize safety and compliance by adhering to strict OSHA and EPA standards. Using advanced methods such as autoclaving, incineration, and chemical treatment, we ensure hazardous waste is fully neutralized and disposed of responsibly. Our reliable, regulated medical waste disposal services help healthcare facilities maintain safety and meet all regulatory requirements.
Our medical waste disposal services start with waste categorization—based on DOT and EPA classifications. We use puncture-resistant, leak-proof containers with regulatory labeling (per OSHA/HIPAA). Waste is stored in controlled, compliant zones before scheduled collection, documented under cradle-to-grave protocols. Transport is handled via permitted vehicles and trained hazmat personnel. Final treatment includes autoclaving, incineration, or chemical disinfection, with full traceability through regulatory-compliant recordkeeping systems.
Proper medical waste disposal begins with the right supplies. Secure Waste offers a wide range of high-quality medical waste supplies, including puncture-resistant sharps containers, biohazard bags, chemotherapy waste bins, and secure pharmaceutical disposal solutions. Our product line also includes red bag liners, reusable totes, spill kits, and DOT-approved shipping containers to support safe collection, transport, and disposal across various healthcare and laboratory environments.
Improper disposal of needles, syringes, scalpels, and lancets poses a serious risk of needlestick injuries and disease transmission. Our sharps waste disposal service offers healthcare facilities FDA-approved, puncture-resistant containers in various sizes and styles, including wall-mounted, desktop, and mobile units, to accommodate different clinical environments. We also provide flexible pickup schedules, mail-back programs, and complete tracking documentation to ensure cradle-to-grave accountability.
Pathological waste includes human tissues, organs, and body parts removed during medical procedures, surgeries, and autopsies. Due to its potential biohazardous nature, proper handling and disposal are crucial. Our pathological waste disposal service includes the provision of leak-proof, clearly labeled containers specifically designed for pathological waste, as well as refrigerated storage options to prevent decomposition. This type of biomedical management waste benefits hospitals, laboratories, and mortuaries handling surgical and autopsy waste.
Chemotherapeutic waste, including unused drugs, contaminated IV bags, and protective gear, must be carefully disposed of to ensure safety. At Secure Waste, we follow EPA and DOT regulations for proper chemotherapeutic waste disposal. Our team coordinates secure pickups and provides end-to-end tracking and documentation for proper chain of custody. With specialized incineration methods that render all residual drugs inert, we help hospitals, oncology centers, and infusion clinics safely and responsibly dispose of chemotherapy waste.
Improper disposal of pharmaceuticals can lead to environmental harm and legal issues. Secure Waste offers a pharmaceutical waste management program aligned with DEA, EPA, and FDA regulations. We handle controlled substances, expired, unused, over-the-counter, and non-hazardous medications. Facilities can choose on-site pickup or mail-back options. We also provide staff training and compliance support to maintain proper segregation and disposal practices.
Medical facilities often generate hazardous waste that requires careful handling due to its potential threat to human health and the environment. This includes chemical solvents, lab reagents, and heavy metal-containing items like mercury thermometers or lead aprons. Secure Waste fully complies with RCRA regulations by offering hazardous waste management services such as onsite waste characterization, proper packaging, labeling, and manifesting.
Biohazardous waste includes materials that carry a risk of infection, such as human blood, body fluids, lab cultures, and contaminated animal waste. Secure Waste ensures safe and compliant disposal through red-bag collection, puncture-resistant containers, and handling aligned with OSHA and CDC guidelines. We utilize advanced biohazard waste disposal methods like high-temperature autoclaving and incineration to destroy infectious agents and minimize environmental and health risks.

Sharps waste should be disposed of in a designated sharps container, including needles, scalpels, blades, and pipettes that have been in contact with blood, body fluids, or microorganisms. These containers can be placed alongside biohazardous waste or in red bag waste to minimize the risk of needlestick injuries and ensure the safety of employees.
Pathological waste, including human and animal body parts, organs, tissues, and surgical specimens devoid of formaldehyde, formalin, or other preservatives, must be packaged separately in containers clearly labeled for incineration. We are ready to help you and your staff ensure the safe segregation, packaging, and disposal of your facility’s pathological waste. It’s essential to handle this waste responsibly.
Addressing chemotherapy waste is essential for ensuring a safe environment for patients and staff. This waste includes empty vials, syringes, needles, IV bags, and contaminated gloves. To protect health, it’s crucial to separate, package, and label this waste properly for disposal. By following regulations, we uphold safety standards and show our commitment to everyone’s well-being. Together, we can create a safer healthcare environment!
Medical waste generated from procedures, including any items saturated with human blood or other potentially infectious materials like bandages, gauze, and personal protective equipment (PPE), must be treated as regulated medical waste (RMW) or red bag waste. It is imperative that these items are disposed of properly in clearly marked hazardous waste disposal containers designated for biohazard pickup.
