Medical Waste

Protecting your home and community with proper medical waste disposal.

Your local hauler is trained to safely and responsibly dispose of household medical waste, and can provide sharps pickup alongside your weekly collection services.

For commercial medical waste, we formed Marion Environmental Services, a small team specially equipped to address the unique needs of medical professionals. See commercial packages below for more details.

Residential Medical Waste Packages

Contact your local hauler for up-to-date rates and services.

1-Gallon Sharps Container

Sharps pickup is available on your regular waste collection day. Must be picked up from your door; sharps containers may not be placed outside.

Oregon State law (OAR 437-02-360) determines how you dispose of special residential waste and regulates the disposal, storage, and transportation of potentially infectious waste. Specifically: needles and lancets used for “at-home” medical care. It is against this law to dispose of any syringes, lancets, or needles in your trash receptacle.
