How much does medical waste disposal cost in Gary, IN?

Where can I dispose of medical waste in Gary?

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

What are the medical waste rules in Indiana?

In Indiana, the legal term is infectious waste, and the rules are cited as 410 IAC 1-3-4, 1-3-10, 1-3-12; IC 16-41-16-4, 16-41-16-7.5. Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) is among the agencies involved. Indiana OSHA (IOSHA), Indiana Department of Labor oversees workplace safety rules in Indiana. Local requirements can add to the state’s, so check what applies where your facility is in Gary.

Can I throw sharps in the regular trash in Gary?

A Gary 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 Lake County.
