Our Medical/Biohazardous Waste Disposal Knowledge and Expertise

As the leading provider of disposal services for medical and biohazardous waste, Stericycle serves a wide variety of customers. We understand the unique needs of your business and offer convenient, compliant solutions. The regulations associated with various regulated biohazardous wastes are intricate, vary by state and local requirements, and are legislated by federal government agencies including:

•  US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
•  US Department of Transportation (DOT).
•  US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
•  US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Stericycle maintains an extensive team of environmental, safety and regulatory specialists who keep up-to-date with and decipher ever-changing federal, state and local requirements. This continued focus and commitment to regulatory compliance ensures that your medical and/or biohazardous waste is handled with the appropriate attention to detail, thereby minimizing your business risk.

We also have services that can aid your facility in staying compliant with OSHA regulations. For most employees, OSHA has strict guidelines intended to protect you and your employees. For example, annual bloodborne pathogens training is legally required for every employee who may come in contact with infectious materials. OSHA also requires that employers maintain and update specific safety plans, such as an exposure control plan and hazard communication. Stericycle offers both on-site and online tools to aid healthcare providers and other businesses in navigating through these requirements and staying compliant.

If your facility discards pharmaceutical products, chemotherapy waste, or pathological waste, each of these has distinct regulatory requirements. Stericycle can expertly accommodate your specialty waste needs.
