Put the same questions to every company serving Plymouth: what Minnesota requires of them (Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) can confirm), where your waste is treated, whether you get a record of each pickup, how often they collect, and how the contract handles its term and price changes. Two or three quotes on the same terms will show the real differences.

Any Plymouth facility that treats patients or handles blood, sharps or pharmaceuticals does.

A healthcare facility in Plymouth 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 Minnesota’s rules, where it is regulated as infectious waste. Household sharps and medicines follow separate local rules, so check with your local health department in Hennepin County.

Minnesota classifies medical waste as infectious waste (Minn. Stat. §§ 116.76, subds. 3, 9, 12–14, 16–18; 116.77). Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is one of the agencies that enforces the rules. Minnesota OSHA (MNOSHA), Department of Labor and Industry oversees workplace safety rules in Minnesota. Your Plymouth facility may also have county or city requirements to confirm.

No, not for a healthcare facility. Sharps go into a puncture-resistant, closable, labeled or color-coded container, replaced before it overfills, and then into a collection program. Personal sharps from home have their own local options in Minnesota.

MedPro Disposal provides online OSHA bloodborne pathogens and HIPAA training with certification to Plymouth practices. OSHA requires the bloodborne pathogens training when someone is hired and at least annually after that.
