APHIS and Food Waste

APHIS waste, also known as regulated garbage or international waste, requires specialized handling to help prevent the spread of foreign plant pests, animal diseases, and other biological risks. This waste may include food scraps, packaging, galley waste, or other materials associated with fruits, vegetables, meats, plants, or animal products from international transportation, certain ports, or other regulated sources.

Because APHIS waste is subject to USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service requirements, proper segregation, transportation, treatment, and documentation are essential. Sharps Medical Waste Services helps customers manage APHIS waste through compliant, reliable service solutions designed to support safe handling from pickup through final treatment and disposal.

Very professional and timely when picking up our medical waste from the funeral home. Calls to confirm we have waste for pickup so they do not make an unnecessary trip out.

Been having issues with Dupixent sending me wrong sharps containers to disposal of pens. Ended up working with Andrea Juarez who was FANTASTIC !!!!!!! She could not have been more helpful in taking ownership of my issue regarding attempting to get OPTUM pharmacy to send me the correct containers. She explained she will speak to the folks over at Client Services or something at OPTUM to see about shipping me the correct container – ?SKU#: 11000 immediately for NY, and ensure that when I change deliveries to my vacation home in Florida, that the correct Sharps container will be shipped there, also. She told me to expect a call from her after this weekend with the results of her conversation with the fulfillment folks. I fully anticipate to hear back from her after the weekend. Again, I cannot emphasize strongly what an asset she is to your organization!!!
