Biohazard Waste

Handling Instructions

Biohazard wastes are usually generated in labs and medical facilities, and contain substances that can pose a threat to the health of living organisms. They are a special class of hazardous waste and cannot be accepted at standard hazardous waste facilities. Lucky for you, there are businesses that will collect and properly dispose of biohazards.

Contact the businesses listed below directly if you have questions about your waste and to see if they can collect it.
