Has anyone used a private company for sharps bin disposal? The companies I’ve contacted recently only deal with industry & not private adresses.
I’m struggling with the boxes that are in my house. My Council doesn’t collect sharps bins, it’s done by designated pharmacies,
Over the past 10-15 years I’ve struggled to get boxes back to the pharmacy- one or both of my legs has been in casts & I can’t see well enough to drive. I’ve tried on occasions to take some boxes in but was told they couldn’t take them at that time as the person who dealt with them wasn’t there.
I’m trying to get on top of my sharps bins, I’ve managed to get 15 boxes to the pharmacy in the last few weeks & I’ll keep going but I still have too many and find it a challenge.
I used to live in an area where the Council collected & left a new box and that was so helpful. As someone living with disabilities I find getting boxes in a rucksack, getting the bus to the pharmacy & hoping they’ll take them a hard slog at present.
I just wondered if anyone had found a company that do this for individuals, Thanks
