Sharps Cleanup Questions From West Woodland and King County

How much does needle and sharps cleanup cost?

The price depends on the size of the area, the number of sharps and access. A short sweep costs less than a full building. A cleanup team can give a real price after hearing the details, and it should explain what is included before work begins.

Is this medical advice?

No. This page explains how needle and sharps cleanup works. It is not medical, legal or insurance advice. For exposure or symptoms, contact a doctor or Poison Control, and for local programs ask the health department.

Do I need to find every needle first?

No. Do not search for them yourself. Tell the team what you have seen and where, and the crew will check the rest of the space in protective gear. Searching by hand is how many sticks happen.

Do I need to be on site?

In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. Many teams can also arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask about that if privacy matters to you.

Can I put needles in the regular trash?

Loose needles should not go in household trash, because they can stab sanitation workers. Rules for small amounts of household sharps vary by city and county. The local health department can say what is allowed, and a cleanup team can take larger amounts.

Is a lancet or insulin needle a sharp?

Yes. Insulin pen needles, lancets and similar small devices are sharps, even though they are used for health care. They should go into a rigid container, never loose into trash.
