Professional Sharps Removal & Disposal | Safe & Compliant Service
Our Approach to Safe Sharps Removal
Our service is discreet, thorough, and prioritises safety above all else. We understand the dangers associated with needlestick injuries and blood-borne viruses. Our technicians are specially trained to conduct meticulous 'needle sweeps' in a wide range of environments, from public toilets and parks to void properties and bin stores. We use correct procedures and specialist equipment to ensure every sharp is found and safely removed, making the area safe for public use once more.
01
Secure the Area & Assess Risk:
Upon arrival, our team immediately secures the location to prevent public access. They conduct a risk assessment while wearing appropriate cut-resistant and puncture-proof PPE.
02
Conduct a Meticulous 'Needle Sweep':
Technicians perform a systematic search of the entire area, including hidden or hard-to-reach places, to locate all discarded sharps.
03
Safe Removal & Containment:
Each sharp is carefully collected using forceps and other specialist tools and placed directly into a UN-approved, puncture-proof sharps container.
04
Compliant Disposal & Area Sanitisation:
The sealed containers are transported for disposal via incineration, as per UK law. We then sanitise the area and provide you with a Waste Transfer Note, confirming legal and safe disposal.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
These are the most commonly asked questions. Can't find what you're looking for?
I've found a needle. What should I do?
Do not touch it under any circumstances. If possible, keep others away from the area and call a professional removal service immediately. Do not attempt to move it or dispose of it in a general waste bin.
What is a 'needle sweep'?
A needle sweep is a detailed, systematic search of an area to find discarded sharps. It is performed by trained professionals who know where to look in high-risk locations, ensuring that all potentially hidden needles are found and removed.
Can you provide regular checks of our public toilets?
Yes. We offer scheduled inspection and sweep services for high-risk locations like public toilets, parks, and bin stores. This proactive approach helps to manage the problem and maintain public safety on an ongoing basis.
How do you dispose of the sharps you collect?
All sharps are collected in sealed, puncture-proof containers. As a licensed waste carrier, we then transport them to a specialist waste facility where they are safely destroyed through incineration, which is the legally required method of disposal.
