Real Glendale Quotes

Glendale, AZ

In the late 1800s what is now known as Glendale, Arizona, was all desert. William John Murphy, a native of New Hartford, New York who resided in the town of Flagstaff in what was then known as the territory of Arizona, was in charge of building a 40-mile long Arizona Canal from Granite Reef to New River for the Arizona Canal Company. He completed the canal, which would bring water to the desert land, in 1885. Murphy was deep in debt, since he had agreed to be paid in Arizona Canal Company stock and bonds and land instead of cash.

Before the thriving city of Glendale was established, it was nothing more than empty desert land. But the Arizona Canal Company project would bring water to the desert land in 1882.

How do I choose a medical waste company in Glendale, AZ?

Compare Glendale companies on the same points: whether they meet the requirements Arizona sets for hauling medical waste, where the waste is treated, the records you receive after each pickup, the pickup schedule, and the contract’s length and price-change terms. Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) is a good place to confirm the state’s requirements.

Which Glendale facilities need medical waste disposal?

Medical waste comes from every kind of healthcare facility in Glendale, from hospitals to small offices. Federal records list 3 hospitals, 6 nursing homes, 7 dialysis centers, 11 surgery centers and 6 health center sites in Glendale. The provider registry adds 136 physician offices with a lab certificate, 304 dentists and 70 pharmacies. Dental offices, veterinary clinics, labs and private practices add to that, and MedPro serves them all.

How much does medical waste disposal cost in Glendale, AZ?

A Glendale practice’s cost comes down to its waste, its containers, its pickup schedule and its building access, which is why we quote each one separately. On average, MedPro customers save 30%. MedPro quotes in Glendale ZIP codes have projected annual savings of $1,460 for an endocrinology, $12,480 for a family practice, and $540 for an otolaryngology.

Where can I dispose of medical waste in Glendale?

Medical waste from a Glendale practice goes to a company set up to collect and treat it, not into the dumpster or to a drop-off site. Arizona regulates it as biohazardous medical waste. Waste from home use, such as personal sharps, follows separate household rules in Maricopa County.

What are the medical waste rules in Arizona?

Arizona classifies medical waste as biohazardous medical waste (A.A.C. R18-13-1401; A.R.S. § 49-701). Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) is one of the agencies that enforces the rules. Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health (ADOSH) oversees workplace safety rules in Arizona. Your Glendale facility may also have county or city requirements to confirm.

Can I throw sharps in the regular trash in Glendale?

A Glendale practice should not. Contaminated needles and blades belong in puncture-resistant, leakproof, labeled or color-coded sharps containers under OSHA’s bloodborne pathogens standard, and the full containers are collected for treatment. Sharps from home use are handled differently, so check your local household rules in Maricopa County.

Does MedPro Disposal offer OSHA and HIPAA training in Glendale?
