Detroit has a humid continental climate with 4 distinct seasons which are influenced heavily by the Great Lakes. The city has many activities and events that are enjoyed by the residents every year.

Voted as the #1 attraction in Detroit, the Detroit Institute of Arts is a must see. The institute is located in Midtown and has one of the largest art collections in the United States. Other activities include visiting Comerica Park to watch the Tigers play some baseball. Another sports venue that is enjoyed by the community is Joe Louis Arena. The residents of Detroit are also very fortunate to take advantage of the elite healthcare system offered to the community.

There are over a dozen of nationally recognized hospitals in the Detroit area along with many independently owned own physicians. One problem these facilities have in common is the accumulation of medical waste that is produced annually. It is very important this dangerous medical waste is removed properly in order to keep the community and patients safe.

On your pick-up date we will remove the accumulated waste that is produced and will provide you with additional boxes to restart the process.

We understand that changes in your business happen all the time, therefore at MedPro Disposal we are able to accommodate your requests.

The bucket comes equipped with a pre-paid UPS return label for easy disposal. The program is compliant on all state and federal levels.

Detroit Little-Known Facts

Known as the world's traditional automotive center, "Detroit" is a metonym for the American automobile industry and an important source of popular music legacies celebrated by the city's two familiar nicknames, the Motor City and Motown. Other nicknames arose in the 20th century, including City of Champions beginning in the 1930s for its successes in individual and team sport, The D, Hockeytown (a trademark owned by the city's NHL club, the Red Wings), Rock City (after the Kiss song "Detroit Rock City"), and The 313 (its telephone area code). Detroit's auto industry was an important element of the American "Arsenal of Democracy" supporting the Allied powers during World War II.

Two or three quotes on the same terms will show the real differences.

Public records show 10 hospitals, 23 nursing homes, 18 dialysis centers and 58 health center sites.

If your facility handles sharps or blood-soiled materials, it needs a medical waste program.

Where can I dispose of medical waste in Detroit?

A healthcare facility in Detroit generally cannot put regulated medical waste in the regular trash or take it to a public collection site. It is packaged, labeled and collected by a company that handles it under Michigan’s rules, where it is regulated as medical waste. Household sharps and medicines follow separate local rules, so check with your local health department in Wayne County.

In Michigan, the legal term is medical waste, and the rules are cited as MCL 333.13805(8), 333.13807; R 325.1541. EGLE, Medical Waste Regulatory Program is among the agencies involved.

Not from a healthcare facility.
