How to Use and Dispose of Your Sharps Bin Safely
During Use: Discard of your used needles, lancets, and syringes immediately after each injection. Never recap needles or try to remove them from syringes by hand. Simply drop the entire used item straight into the waste bin through the opening.
When Full: Stop using the box once it reaches the clearly marked fill line – don’t try to squeeze in extra items. Press the lid down firmly until you hear it click shut. Once sealed, the bin cannot be reopened.
Final Disposal: Take your sealed sharps box to any participating pharmacy for free disposal, or contact your local council about clinical waste collection services. Never put sharps bins in your household rubbish or recycling.
Safety Reminder: Keep out of reach of children and pets, and store it in a stable location that won’t tip over.
