Sharps containers

[dirtydeed]

This is what I do. It's essentially the same thing as throwing away an oral syringe

I was thinking the same thing, I can't figure any reason this wouldn't be safe and save a lot of space in my containers & still remove the dangerous part

Thats why its a sharps container....only the sharp objects go into the container. The other u could just toss out

Called around and couldn't find anyone to take my red container. So I
just cut the needles into several small bits and the syringe up real good with a gardeners hand pruner into an old soup can or something so they're unrecognizable and can't poke garbage man or trash handlers.

I really never gave it this much thought but I guess the main issue would b someone getting poked not the fact its been inside your body. As far as that goes gause, bandaids, women's tampons, etc...there's a lot of nasty stuff goin in garbage cans on a larger scale everyday

Would just like to take a survey of how many people actually use sharps containers & how they dispose of them. For me I've always ordered my containers from gpz when needed & can take them to health dept & drop off, but man they fill up so fast!!! Just sayin lol

We do. We have a few very large sharp containers.
When these fill up they get shipped to a contractor
who disposes of them,,typically incinerated.

I use green barreled needles for my sus' , long ones for drawing out, and short ones for injecting. I go to where the heroin addicts go for my needles and sharpsbin (I call it a sin bin!) And return it back to them to dispose of when I need more barrels. Don't know how the drugs agencies in the states work, but here in the uk most pharamacies (drug stores) and drug addictions agencies do a free needle supply and exchange service and dispose of the sin bin for you as well, hope this helps.

Interesting stuff guys....I just learned 2day that in Kentucky (united states) it's legal to put your sharps on a plastic laundry detergent tub & just throw out with the trash (see earlier post for article)......simply AMAZING!!
