how do you guys dispose your syringes?

[jimp]

you can buy a proper sharps container (cheap) from your local pharmacy. They can also give you a list of local drop off facilities for when the container is full. Just drop it off.
Tons of people take shots everyday for legit reasons.
Throwing them in the the regular garbage is just $^%&#$ up!

I put them in a special box at our horse barn, which is for biomedical waste, and the county comes and swaps it for an empty one when full. I would NEVER put them in a place where someone might get hurt, or where an animal might be pawing through for garbage, etc, nor would I put them in a public trash can. When I'm in Dallas, I save them and bring them back to CA to throw out. Dallas sends trash to a sorting plant, where somebody might get hurt.

If I didn't have that as an option, I'd probably get a pair of wire cutters and snip them in pieces, and then put them in the trash in a glass jar with a metal lid.

If you want to go legal, most counties have a program through the local health department for diabetics to save and send in used syringes. Ask at a local pharmacy.

I used to just eat them all...but I started getting stomach pains after a while so I started throwing them into a special box for disposal.

didnt really know where to post this one, just curious the best ways you guys dispose your syringes?

Buy a sharps container. Most places,,,clinics..hospitals,,have drop off spots for these for
folks who use lots of pins like diabetics.

I switched to the local drugstore biohazard container... milk jug method was okay but actually ineffective... ended up getting poked one day

I find the nearest park and throw them in the sandbox

I just use empty vitamin bottles, once filled up a little rubber cement around the cap and off to the trash. Syringe(no needle attached) goes in regular trash, nothing special.

I collect mine for about a month, and dump them in a park garbage bin like any self-respecting junkie would.

I actually keep and autoclave my syringes. I cap the needles, collect them in empty vitamin bottles as well, and throw them out in the trash.
