3 Gallon In-Room Transparent Red Sharps Container w/ Always Open Lid - 85221R

The Cardinal Health 3 Gallon In-Room Sharps Container w/ Always Open Lid is the only way sharps items should be disposed. Used syringes, needles and blades, IV needles and lines, as well as scalpels and used staples -- to dispose of these type of items with an unsatisfactory process is unsafe for your office staff and visitors. Make sure you protect all those around from hazardous contamination and exposure to illness and infections. If you need to dispose of items such as gloves, one option that would work well is the 8 Gallon White PharmaSafety Medical Waste Container.

The Cardinal 85221R In-Room 3 Gallon Transparent Red Sharps Container includes a featured always-open lid to allow staff disposing of used items to have minimal to no contact at all with the sharps container -- the less contact the better, as it reduces the possibility of touching blood and other bodily fluids. The lid opening is long enough to accommodate syringes up to 8.5 inches long (60 milliliters). The lid allows for items to be dropped in a horizontal manner to increase the use of space and capacity within the sharps container for maximum efficiency.

The sharps container includes a final disposal lock. This lock is activated when the container has reached the level of capacity as indicated on the sharps container. When disposing of the entire container, special care is needed when transporting the bin - in most cases, there will be a number to call for pickup of the container for a location or area in which you can dispose of the filled sharps bin if your facility does not have a regular pickup.
