We handle regulated medical waste, including contaminated gloves, gauze, dressings, and non-sharp medical instruments. We ensure safe and compliant disposal while reducing environmental consequences using the top waste treatment methods like autoclaving and incineration.
The biohazardous waste consists of infectious materials, lab cultures, and any PPE that has been contaminated. We perform biohazard waste disposal safely by using special packaging and disposal methods. This helps us avoid any cross-contamination and keeps everyone safe from exposure risks.
We focus on managing trace and bulk chemotherapy waste, like IV bags, vials, and gloves contaminated with cytotoxic drugs. We follow NIOSH and EPA guidelines in our disposal process, so you can trust that chemotherapy waste is handled safely through high-temperature incineration.
Properly disposing of needles, syringes, scalpels, and lancets is essential to avoid needlestick injuries and the transmission of diseases. We offer OSHA-compliant sharps containers, scheduled pickups for safe collection, and sharps waste disposal through incineration or sterilization.
This category includes human tissues, organs, and body parts from surgical procedures. We follow strict biohazard handling protocols and use incineration methods to ensure the eradication of pathological waste in compliance with state and federal laws.
Expired, unused, or contaminated pharmaceuticals pose a significant risk if improperly disposed of. We offer secure pharmaceutical waste management of controlled substances, hazardous and non-hazardous drug disposal, and compliance with DEA and EPA regulations to prevent environmental contamination.
Our biomedical waste disposal solutions address infectious and non-infectious waste generated by healthcare facilities. Safe handling techniques, secure transport, and environmentally sustainable disposal methods are employed to safeguard public health and the environment.

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.
