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

Actually the syringe itself requires biohazard disposal since it is considered biological material.

Here are some websites for you to check your state disposal recommendations.
State Disposal Laws - Safe Needle Disposal - Houston, Texas
Sharps Disposal Regulations by State

My local CVS gives me the sharps container free, yours charge?
I know USPS will flat out refuse to ship since it is biohazardous, FedEx does ship if they are informed of what you are shipping in advanced.

Makes sense, but stupid when you think about all of the disgusting things people put in their trash cans. If they want to be that technical about a syringe with no needle, they should require the same for baby diapers, tissue paper covered with germs and mucus, and bloody tampons

Ya I can understand the needle but the syringe is retarded! Luckily I live in a state that will pick my sharps container up with the garbage

Maggots and poop > male hormones that can end in the earth contaminating water sources or that falls out of a ripped trash bag and a woman/kid handles by mistake

I've always used a large plastic Evan bottle and made sure the cover stays on the needle preventing the bottle from being pierced

WTH?!?!?!
"For the safety of our employees, the State of Virginia recommends that home-generated sharps (needles and syringes) be placed in a Clorox or a detergent bottle and labeled "do not recycle.""
So what to do with my sharps container?!?! Guess I'll tape it up and write "do not recycle" on it.
