Sharps, needles and syringes

You can request an on-demand sharps collection to dispose of sharps, needles and syringes.

On the day of your collection, leave your locked sharps bin at the edge of your property by 6am. If you live in a flat or maisonette please leave your locked sharps bin outside the main entrance of the building by 6am. Only locked sharps bins will be collected.
