Medical waste should be handled with extreme caution and care to prevent the spread of diseases and infections. To safely dispose of medical waste, wrap the items in double plastic bags or place them in sealed containers labeled with “ biohazard”.  Additionally, you can take the waste to authorized medical waste treatment centers for proper disposal or ask your local authorities about procedures they provide for safe disposal of medical waste.

One way medical institutions can safely dispose of their waste is by utilizing autoclave equipment, which destroys biological contaminants. Other methods include microwave technology and heat-based incineration processes, all of which can reduce the waste to non-hazardous materials that can be disposed in a regular garbage bin. Ensuring that these methods are performed in accordance to local, state and federal regulations, will help maintain the safety of both people and the environment.
