How do you Dispose of Sharps Waste?

Sharps waste, a critical concern for businesses and healthcare facilities, is collected from our customers and disposed of both legally and safely, adhering to stringent environmental and health regulations. The vast majority of the time, these potentially hazardous materials, including needles and scalpels, undergo a vital treatment process: high-temperature incineration.

Incineration itself is a well-established and highly effective thermal process that treats waste materials through controlled, high-heat combustion. This method is a common, reliable, and fundamentally safe way to permanently dispose of medical waste, effectively neutralising biohazards and reducing the volume of the waste to sterile ash. This robust process ensures environmental protection and public safety by destroying pathogens and preventing injury.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a fully licensed and insured waste carrier?

Yes. We only work with licensed waste carriers. Your business has a legal "duty of care" under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 to ensure your waste is handled safely and legally by a licensed carrier. Working with a company like Direct365 for sharps bin removal will ensure you stay compliant.

What are your legal obligations?

Healthcare waste can seem like it’s governed by a complex puzzle of laws, making it impossible to get your head around. Let us take away the stress and keep you compliant with ease.

Businesses have a responsibility to ensure that their waste causes no damage, harm or infection – this is part of every company’s Duty of Care. The best way to guarantee this is by entrusting waste disposal to a licensed waste carrier, like us.

We’ll safely collect your clinical waste and ensure that your business adheres to current disposal laws. For reliable, trustworthy sharps disposal, use Direct365.

How do you ensure proper waste segregation?

As it is a legal requirement to separate different types of sharps waste (e.g., those contaminated with medicines versus those with cytotoxic/cytostatic materials), they must be segregated into specific colour-coded bins (orange, yellow, or purple-lidded) for appropriate treatment, which we provide.
