A healthcare facility in Lee's Summit 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 Missouri’s rules, where it is regulated as infectious waste. Household sharps and medicines follow separate local rules, so check with your local health department.
