With that information we are able to determine a designated pick up schedule that works for you. Your facility will be provided with red-lined cardboard boxes that hold the accumulated medical waste. We will remove your boxes on your scheduled pick up date, and also provide your facility will additional boxes to restart the process.
Another popular service that is offered to the Milwaukee healthcare facilities is our unique pharmaceutical mail back program. Your facility would be provided with a 2.5 gallon OTC/Rx or controlled bucket that would collect unwanted and expired medications. The bucket comes equipped with a pre-paid UPS return label for an easy disposal process. It is very important these medications do not end up in the landfills and water systems of the community. The program is compliant on all federal and state levels, and is a great affordable solution to your pharmaceutical needs.

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

Where can I dispose of medical waste in Milwaukee?
A healthcare facility in Milwaukee 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 Wisconsin’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 Milwaukee County.
What are the medical waste rules in Wisconsin?
In Wisconsin, the legal term is infectious waste, and the rules are cited as Wis. Stat. s. 287.07 (7) (c) 1. c.; Wis. Admin. Code ss. NR 500.03, NR 526.05. Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Waste and Materials Management is among the agencies involved. Federal OSHA oversees workplace safety for private employers in Wisconsin. Local requirements can add to the state’s, so check what applies where your facility is in Milwaukee.
Can I throw sharps in the regular trash in Milwaukee?
Not from a healthcare facility. OSHA’s bloodborne pathogens standard requires contaminated sharps to go into closable, puncture-resistant, leakproof, labeled or color-coded containers, which are then collected for treatment. Household sharps follow local rules, so check Wisconsin’s household sharps guidance in Milwaukee County.
