Medical Waste Removal Frequently Asked Questions in St. Francis, WI

Do I need to be home during the pickup?

In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call. Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask if privacy matters.

Do you remove waste left behind after a death?

A cleanup team can remove medical waste left after a death, such as needles, soaked supplies or contaminated linens. If the death involved a crime or an investigation, work starts only after authorities release the property. Ask about discreet arrival when you call.

Will neighbors know a cleanup team is at my property?

Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle and work quietly. If privacy matters, ask about it when you call. The team asks only what it needs to plan the job, and you decide what else to share.

What about old medicine?

Medicine is usually kept apart from medical waste. A pharmacy, a take-back program or the local health department can say what applies where you live. A cleanup team can tell you whether it takes medicine or only sharps and clinical waste.

How much does medical waste removal cost?

The price depends on the amount and type of waste, the number of containers, any spill cleanup, travel and access. A cleanup team can give a price after hearing the details. Ask what is included, such as disinfecting the area and disposal records.

What are bloodborne pathogens?

They are germs that spread through blood and some other body fluids. Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV are examples. Workers who may come into contact with them are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030.

Not sure where to dispose of biohazard waste in St. Francis?

Tell the team what the waste is and where it is, and it will explain the next step.
