On-site Sharps Disposal

Sharps disposal containers are located in most of the accessible washrooms across Burnaby Campus.

Lab-specific sharps:
Sharps containers are designed to contain needles, scalpel blades, razor blades, and similar items. All used sharps must be placed in the appropriate sharps container. Sharps contaminated with biohazardous materials (RG1 and RG2) should be placed in the red sharps containers. Sharps which are contaminated with both biohazardous material AND radioisotopes should be placed in the designated red sharps container and affixed with a yellow radioactive waste tag. Sharps which are contaminated with radioisotopes ONLY should be placed in yellow sharps containers and affixed with a yellow radioactive waste tag. Sharps which are neither biohazardous nor radioactive should be placed in the yellow sharps containers.
