About Us

What we offer


Biohazard Waste Removal

This includes blood and bodily fluids, tissue cultures, and items saturated in blood. Also items that are considered biohazard waste are sealed sharps containers, gloves, PPE, and gauze. Also, laboratory wastes that are contaminated or contain blood products.

Sharps Waste Removal

The EPA defines sharps waste as any item that has sharp edges or points that can cut, pierce, or penetrate the skin. This is a type of biohazardous waste that must be handled carefully and safely. Sharps must be in a secured sharps container to ensure safety.

Trace Chemotherapy Removal

Trace chemotherapy contains less than 3% of the original drug content. It also may include any material that has been in contact with a small amount of chemotherapy. The EPA characterizes trace chemotherapy as a hazardous chemical waste and therefore it must be managed as biomedical waste.

Pathological Waste Removal

This waste is a type of biomedical waste that includes human or animal body parts, tissues, organs, and bodily fluids. This can also be tissues and organs removed during autopsy, research, or other medical procedures.
