DON'T GET STUCK WITH YOUR SHARPS!
Beginning on September 1, 2008, a new state law takes effect that will make it illegal to dispose of sharps waste in the trash or recycling containers. It requires that all sharps waste be transported to a collection center in an approved sharps container. Home-generated sharps waste includes hypodermic needles, syringes, lancets that are used for medical purposes. Improper disposal of sharps waste poses a threat to sanitation workers, adults, children and even pets.
