Maryland Medical Waste Disposal Services

Medical waste is an unavoidable byproduct of medicine, and handling this waste properly is extremely important. This is especially true in Maryland where the proper transportation and disposal of medical waste is strictly regulated. Until destroyed, the medical and hazardous medical waste produced by your business or facility is your responsibility. In order to ensure the safe disposal of hazardous materials, it’s important to find a medical waste disposal company you can rely on. Maryland Medical Waste Disposal Services

All Shapes and Sizes of Waste Disposal Containers

Medical facilities have a lot of disposal options to choose from. There are different kinds of sharps containers, from ones that can fit on a desk to those kept on the floor. Not every hospital or doctor’s office needs the same waste disposal containers, and what works best depends on the size and preferences of the medical facility. There are packaging options that suit these different business needs, including cardboard boxes with red plastic bags, totes, and carts. Whatever options best meet your business needs, they can be supplied by a quality waste disposal company.

Not all Waste Management Plans are Created Equal.

What works for a major hospital might not be the best fit for a small family medical clinic. Which is why, when considering your medical waste management, it’s important to find a company that will create a customized plan. These plans can help ensure the amount of waste is reduced, businesses are compliant with regulations, and infection control procedures can be strengthened. These personalized waste management plans can help optimize efficiency and provide customers with superior customer service. Before deciding which waste disposal company to trust, it’s important to make sure they offer all the services required. For example, a large quantity waste generator (over 1,000 kilograms of hazardous waste each month) needs someone who is capable of safely and effectively disposing of high volumes of medical waste. Other things to take into account are how long, and how effective, the company of choice has been in the medical waste disposal field. Hazardous and acutely hazardous medical waste needs to be handled, transported, and disposed of with great care. If they aren’t, environmental and health-related disasters could become an issue. Which is why it’s vital to research both medical waste disposal options and Maryland regulations.

Rebecca Crouse, Randolph Macon Academy

We used BWS for sharps disposal at a doctor's office. I saw their bright truck in the parking lot at work which lead me to call for a quote. They responded to my inquiry quickly and thoroughly, answering all my questions. They gave me pricing that was very reasonable, and lower than many companies I checked. They were a pleasure to communicate with via phone and email, no phone tag! The truck arrived the day and time we planned. The driver was very personable and easy to communicate with. The people I interacted with seem to understand the value of customer service. I would highly recommend them. They will take care of you.
