Handling pathological waste

Pathological waste is a regulated medical waste sub-stream with its own handling rules. It is collected in dedicated, labeled containers and routed to a facility permitted for incineration, the same treatment used for most of the waste we handle.

Keeping it as its own labeled stream makes sure it is packaged, stored and documented the way your state’s rules for pathological waste require. We supply the containers and pick it up with your other streams.
