Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- What should go into a clinical waste bin?
Waste that can cause infection or disease should be disposed of in a clinical bin. Examples of waste which you should dispose of in a clinical waste bin include:
- Sharps waste: ‘Sharps’ items that may have been contaminated with infectious organisms or medicines, including items that can pierce the skin, like needles, syringes, or broken glass.
- Infectious waste: Items that can pass infectious diseases to people or animals, including gloves, masks, and tubing.
- Can you put clinical waste in a regular bin?
Primarily, you should dispose of clinical waste in a dedicated clinical waste bin. However, some household clinical waste that is not hazardous or infectious (i.e. nappies) can be disposed of in your standard household waste bin, providing that it is securely wrapped or bagged.
