Milwaukee Sharps Disposal Services
It would be disastrous if there were no sharps disposal services in Milwaukee and the surrounding areas. The City and County of Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin are committed to the proper handling of discarded needles and other sharps that can be dangerous to waste workers and the public.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) wants everyone to know that sharps that are not disposed of correctly pose a risk to the community. They even register sharps collection locations where the general public can go to safely dispose of their sharps. Many health care clinics, hospitals or health care facilities accept sharps under this program. Would you like to help your community too?
Keeping Businesses and Healthcare Facilities Safe
Businesses like yours need safety policies and sharps collection procedures that will safeguard your employees and patrons from needle stick injuries and possible infection. In Wisconsin it’s illegal to place sharps in the trash or with recyclables. Used sharps can stick workers who handle waste and trash. If trash containers are blown over or bags rip open, children, adults and pets can be endangered.
