Sharps go into puncture-resistant containers. Soaked items are bagged, sealed and labeled so nothing leaks during transport.
Sealed containers travel to a facility that treats regulated medical waste. Rules about haulers apply, and the team can explain them.
Floors, shelves or drawers that held the waste are disinfected with EPA-registered products, and any odor is addressed.
The cost of medical waste removal in Flomaton, AL depends on the amount of material, how it is packed and how it is hauled.
