Medical Waste Disposal Arlington, Texas
MedPro offers services for biomedical waste pickup, sharps disposal and safety compliance solutions.
Here are a few reasons MedPro Disposal has an edge over other medical waste disposal companies :
- 1
MedPro Disposal is cost-conscious:
The cost of removing medical waste varies from state to state, and even office to office. We know that healthcare budgets are stretched very thin. That’s why we work with each individual client to work out a service schedule and payment plan that makes since for that specific business.
How much waste an office produces, how often it needs to be picked up, and how close that office is to other facilities using our services all get factored into price. At any time, an office can scale back or ramp up the number of pick-ups to best fit their needs.
We would much rather pick up full waste containers less frequently than charge extra to pick up half-full containers on a more frequent basis. It saves you money and us time.
- 2
MedPro Disposal is service oriented:
MedPro Disposal believes that our customers come first. That is why we customize our service for each and every client based on their needs. Everyone on our field team and on teams with our affiliate hauling companies are trained to maintain top-notch customer satisfaction.
Our attitude toward customer service overflows into how we operate as a company. Our invoices are easy to read and understand. We utilize green paperless billing and online document retrieval in most areas for convenience. And we always offer customized plans based on customer needs so that no one is spending more than necessary on our services.
- 3
MedPro Disposal has seen it all:
MedPro Disposal has been expanding its services across the nation since 2009. That has given us plenty of time to know and understand the intricacies of the market. Service for a small, specialized doctor’s office is going to vary wildly from service at a large clinic. We are prepared to handle all situations.
Our vast experience also validates our commitment to cost and customer service. Our customers continue to report rave reviews and prove that our prices for our services remain unmatched by our competition.
The bottom line is, MedPro Disposal fits the bill when it comes to price, customer service, experience and additional offerings. For a quick break down of exactly what MedPro Disposal can offer your healthcare facility, see below:

Arlington Medical Waste FAQs
Who provides medical waste disposal in Arlington, TX?
You have several options in Arlington, and MedPro Disposal is among them. We have served healthcare facilities since 2009, hold a BBB A+ rating, and are rated 4.5 out of 5 across 882 Google reviews. Our pickups cover medical waste, sharps and pharmaceutical waste throughout Texas. Service is confirmed at your address when you request a quote.
How do I choose a medical waste company in Arlington, TX?
Put the same questions to every company serving Arlington: what Texas requires of them (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Municipal Solid Waste Permits Section 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.
Which Arlington facilities need medical waste disposal?
Any Arlington facility that treats patients or handles blood, sharps or pharmaceuticals does. In federal Medicare and HRSA records, Arlington has 7 hospitals, 9 nursing homes, 8 dialysis centers, 7 surgery centers and 2 health center sites. The national provider registry also lists 159 physician offices with a lab certificate, 293 dentists and 138 pharmacies. Private practices, dental offices, veterinary clinics and laboratories generate it too, though not all of them appear in those records.
How much does medical waste disposal cost in Arlington, TX?
There is no single rate for Arlington: price follows your waste volume, container sizes, pickup schedule and building access. MedPro customers save an average of 30% over their previous hauler. Ask for a free, no-obligation quote based on your own facility.
Where can I dispose of medical waste in Arlington?
Medical waste from an Arlington practice goes to a company set up to collect and treat it, not into the dumpster or to a drop-off site. Texas regulates it as medical waste. Waste from home use, such as personal sharps, follows separate household rules in Tarrant County.
What are the medical waste rules in Texas?
In Texas, the legal term is medical waste, and the rules are cited as 30 TAC 326.3(23); 25 TAC §1.132(2), (7), (8), (38), (42), (44), (46). Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Municipal Solid Waste Permits Section is among the agencies involved. Federal OSHA oversees workplace safety for private employers in Texas. Local requirements can add to the state’s, so check what applies where your facility is in Arlington.
Can I throw sharps in the regular trash in Arlington?
An Arlington 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 Tarrant County.
Does MedPro Disposal offer OSHA and HIPAA training in Arlington?
MedPro Disposal provides online OSHA bloodborne pathogens and HIPAA training with certification to Arlington practices. OSHA requires the bloodborne pathogens training when someone is hired and at least annually after that.
