Sharps Disposal Checklist
What you need to dispose of needles: a sharps container.
Where it goes depends on where you live; what it goes in does not.
How this list was made: each line is the product that best matches the specifications this situation asks for, taken from PepPrep's product records. The interactive version asks two questions (How many needles a month?; Is there a drop-off near you?) and adjusts the list.
Read first: How to dispose of a full sharps container explains the routine this list is for. The list below is equipment only.
Must have
Skip one of these and the routine does not work. Lines marked with a dot depend on how you answer the questions in the interactive version; these show the usual answers.
- Sharps Disposal Container Sharps container — 1 L; certified: the kind take-back routes accept
Nice to have
Makes it easier, cheaper or more comfortable. None are required.
- Needle Clipper Needle clipper — for travel days
Probably don't need
Sold everywhere; most people do not need them, and here is why.
- Sharps Container Wall Bracket Wall bracket — only where children can reach the container
