Questions to Ask Your Waste Disposal Company

With so many options and so many providers in your area, it can be incredibly difficult to choose a medical waste disposal company that can properly fit your needs. You are, of course, searching for one that can dispose of waste while simultaneously functioning as a reliable company. However, what are the qualities for which you should be looking? It’s important to fully understand each of the necessary elements of a successful waste disposal company. We’re here to give you all the talking points to consider before you’re ready to choose the right one. Questions to Ask Your Waste Disposal Company  

Conduct Online Research

It’s important to know whether or not a waste disposal company has satisfied other customers in the past. If others have found them to be reputable, they probably are. Your best bet to discovering the opinions of other customers is to search online for reviews, comments, and ratings. Dissatisfied customers are more likely to give a review, so a high rating on social media is trustworthy. You’ll notice right away if a waste disposal company is failing in customer service, or service in general. When looking for online comments, be sure to search for the following aspects.

What to Look For

Here are the aspects that you’ll need to take into consideration:

  • Employee Standards. Does this company hire the right kind of people? This means they’ll conduct drug tests, do extensive background checks, and provide DOT certified drivers. They should also be providing proper training and regular education.
  • Contract Policy. The best policy for contracts is no policy at all. You’ll want to find a waste disposal company that focuses on keeping customers happy, and this includes keeping them free of binding contracts. Customers want to know that, if something goes wrong, they can easily rectify the issue via cancelling the service.
  • Local Ownership. A successful waste disposal company will be locally owned, and will not outsource their waste removal services. They will also be entirely OSHA compliant.
  • Established Social Media. Does this waste disposal service have a reputable online presence? It’s important to check. This means that they actually care about their company, and are willing to keep up with the necessary means of marketing and online interaction. Active blogs means that they are dedicated to education and service knowledge, as well as understanding that customers should be knowledgeable about the service they are hiring.

Now that you’ve considered all the options, you’ll notice that a lot of waste disposal companies probably possess a lot of these positive qualities. In this case, it’s time to consider BWS.

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.

Dr. Louis Sachs, DDS

I ran a dental charity for many years, organizing huge clinics to treat those in need. BWS donated their waste disposal services for every clinic for many years, and they continue to do so to this day. This is always a huge job, and they are always reliable, dedicated, and fun to work with. They know what it means to give back.
