Medical Waste Disposal Arlington, Texas (TX) Services – Save Up To 83.6%

Medical waste is outlined in Texas Administrative Code (§326.3(23), §1.132) as the following: “treated and untreated special waste from health care-related facilities that is comprised of:

1. Animal waste (waste from animals that have been intentionally exposed to pathogens)
2. Bulk blood, bulk human blood, bulk human body fluids
3. Microbiological waste
4. Pathological waste
5. Sharps (hypodermic needles)”

If your facility only produces “sharps”, you can rest assured that’s the majority of medical waste for facilities (~80% of our Arlington clients also only produce “sharps” as their medical waste.)

Determining if your “facility” is required to properly dispose of your “medical waste” is a process of discerning what your facility is “not”, as per “30 TAC”:

“Health care-related facilities do not include:

(A) single or multi-family dwellings; and

(B) hotels, motels, or other establishments that provide lodging and related services for the public.”

If your facility is a “family dwelling” or an “establishment providing lodging for the public”, then follow these recommendations for safely disposing of sharps and syringes (GI-418.)

If your facility is not a “family dwelling” or an “establishment providing lodging for the public”, then you are required by law to properly dispose of medical waste.

The risks of improper medical waste disposal are clear.

The City of Arlington (Tarrant County) defers proper disposal of regulated waste to “private companies available to dispose of medical wastes”.

BioMedical Waste Solutions is one of the very few private Arlington medical waste disposal companies that are registered and permitted by Texas state to handle, transport, store, destroy, and dispose of medical waste and provide Arlington medical waste disposal services.

The method of disposal for medical waste typically involves processes like incineration, autoclaving, chemical disinfection, and landfill disposal. Each method ensures safe handling and environmental responsibility. Incineration destroys hazardous waste effectively, while autoclaving uses high-pressure steam for sterilization. Chemical disinfection and landfill are also used, adhering to regulations to prevent environmental contamination and ensure public safety.

In Texas, syringes should be placed in a hard, puncture-proof container with a securely tightened lid, labeled as ‘sharps,’ and then disposed of in the household trash. It is important not to recycle sharps or flush them down the toilet for safety reasons.

Safe disposal of biological waste requires segregating it from other waste types, using appropriate biohazard containers, and following specific treatment processes like autoclaving. The waste must be accurately labeled and handed over to a licensed medical waste disposal service.

Pathological waste, such as tissues, organs, and body parts, must be disposed of according to medical waste regulations. This typically involves incineration or other approved methods to render the waste non-infectious, followed by disposal in compliance with local and federal guidelines.
