Reusable Sharps Containers for Healthcare

Our Sharps Management Service utilizes reusable sharps containers and streamlines the collection and disposal of sharps waste, increasing efficiencies, protecting your staff and reducing your carbon footprint. 

Benefits of Reusable Sharps Containers

Improve Sharps Safety and Patient Care

Proactive reusable sharps container exchange ensures containers don’t exceed the fill-line, avoiding sharps injuries during needle disposal. By eliminating your organization’s responsibility of ordering, storing, transporting and monitoring inventory, staff have more time to focus on what matters most – patient care.

Puncture-resistant for Sharps Injury Prevention

Reusable sharps containers or multi-use sharps containers are also designed to be puncture resistant, which greatly reduces the risk of needlestick injuries, protecting healthcare workers.

Cost Efficient

When you switch to Stericycle’s Sharps Management Service, you’ll reduce or eliminate spend on disposable sharps containers and you’ll also reduce other costs related to materials handling, cardboard & packaging disposal.

Multiple Container Design Options

Designed to minimize employee and patient exposure to bloodborne pathogens from needlestick injuries, our unique funnel-top container design allows staff to safely dispose of sharps using one hand and an easy-to-see fill line to avoid overfilling. Containers come in a variety of sizes to meet your needs.

Supports Your Environmental Sustainability Goals

Every reusable container from Stericycle, replaces the use of up to 600 containers. This significantly reduces plastic and cardboard going to landfills and your organization’s carbon footprint. Your Account Management team will provide you with actionable data to set and achieve sustainability goals.
