Sharps are the most common source of staff injuries. We provide sealed, labeled sharps containers and remove full ones at every visit.

Florida Biomedical Waste Rules for St. Petersburg Facilities
Every St. Petersburg facility that generates biomedical waste answers to Florida’s Chapter 64E-16 rules and to inspections by the Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County. The essentials: a generator permit (low-volume offices under 25 pounds per 30 days may qualify for an exemption), a written biomedical waste operating plan, annual staff training, properly labeled red bags and sharps containers, and a 30-day maximum storage time. Waste must leave your site with a DOH-registered transporter, and each of our pickups is documented, so you have records ready for inspections.

St. Petersburg Medical Waste FAQ
Do you serve Clearwater and the rest of Pinellas County?

What is the difference between a sharps container and a red bag?
Needles, blades, lancets and broken glass go in rigid, puncture-resistant sharps containers. Non-sharp items contaminated with blood or body fluids go in labeled red bags inside a rigid outer container.
Do veterinary clinics need medical waste service?
Yes. Veterinary clinics produce sharps and other biomedical waste regulated by Florida, and need the same compliant disposal.
