Regulated Waste Streams in Universities & Educational Institutions

Educational institutions with health centers, laboratories, and research programs generate regulated waste that must be managed properly to protect students, staff, and the campus community.

Common Waste Types Managed

  • Regulated Medical & Biohazardous Waste: Materials contaminated with blood or other potentially infectious substances generated in campus health centers or laboratories.
  • Sharps Waste: Needles, syringes, blades, pipettes, and other sharp instruments used in laboratories or health services require approved containers.
  • Pharmaceutical Waste: Expired, unused, or non-viable medications generated through campus health services or laboratory activities.
  • Confidential Documents: Sensitive academic, medical, or personnel records requiring secure destruction.

Proper disposal helps maintain a safe campus environment and supports compliance.

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!!!
