The regulated medical waste disposal is a service that needs to be done with extreme caution. MedPro Disposal’s simplistic approach that we take regarding the removal process is a benefit for the Elgin healthcare facilities. We require only two pieces of information in order to construct a personalized medical waste removal plan. The information includes how much medical waste is being produced and how often the medical waste is picked up. Our team works with you to provide a designated pick-up schedule that suits your needs.

Your facility would be provided with red-lined cardboard boxes that would hold the accumulated medical waste. On your scheduled pick-up date, we would remove the medical waste boxes and provide you with new boxes to restart the process. Here at MedPro we understand your frequency and volume of your pick-ups may need to be changed. Therefore, we are very flexible when it comes to accommodating your requests.

We are dedicated to getting your employees trained and OSHA compliant. We have an excellent OSHA program that we offer in order to get your employees certified.
