Healthcare Waste
Clean Earth offers several options for a customized waste disposal system and programs for the medical community.
Clean Earth offers tailored waste disposal systems and programs for the medical community, in which challenges are faced each day. Clean Earth will consult with you to identify the proper disposal needs of your facility by conducting a walk through audit of each medical location or specifically respond to those needs you identify. Then, we will create a compliant waste program for hazardous, universal, recyclable and regulated wastes offsite specifically customized for you.
Maintaining your facility compliance requires routine management of offsite wastes, regular facility inspections, satellite accumulation areas in strategic locations, and temporary storage within each facility to remain in compliance. Clean Earth will keep you in compliance.
