SHARPS WASTE
Sharps Waste Is High-Risk — And Heavily Regulated
Sharps waste must be disposed of through licensed channels. Needles, syringes, and other sharp instruments can carry infectious material, posing a serious risk if not managed correctly. Many clients come to us after experiencing:
Overflowing sharps bins or infrequent collections
Concerns over compliance with CQC or infection control audits
Delays and poor communication from national waste providers
Illegal dumping or misplacement of community sharps waste
Lack of documentation or traceability during inspections
At Eighty Eight, we provide a fully traceable sharps disposal service that includes:
Collection of full sharps containers, including yellow, orange, and purple-lidded bins
