'Because We Care'': A Free of Charge Home-Generated Sharps Disposal Program by EcoSteris

Many residents have medical conditions that require self-injections at home. Because of issues regarding safety and the spread of disease, the disposal of home-generated needles, syringes and lancets (or "sharps") has caused some concern among families and trash collection services as well as landfill and recycling staff.

Responding to this growing concern, EcoSteris has developed the "Because We Care" program, a safe and simple way to dispose of home-generated sharps.

EcoSteris is offering a free of charge drop-off service at our facility located at 112 Fabricators Street, Summerville, SC 29483 on the 1st Friday of every quarter between 8:00am and 5:00pm. 

Our first event will be Friday, September 6, 2024.
