Hazardous medical waste should be disposed of as strictly as possible. It is most effective to pour liquids into sealable containers and place the solid materials in a bag or wrap it in paper towel before disposing it into a hazardous trash container. Needles and syringes should never be left in humid locations, such as bathrooms, or inserted into plants or animals, because this poses a risk of viral spread.

The most effective way to dispose of hazardous medical waste, such as needles and syringes, is by double bagging it in heavy-duty garbage bags and placing them in a sealable container. The container should then be taken to a local authority-approved hazardous waste disposal facility.
