Red Bag Waste
Medical Waste is waste generated in connection with the diagnosis, treatment (i.e., provision of medical services), or immunization of human beings or animals; research pertaining to the provision of medical services; or the provision or testing of biologicals.
All Medical Waste must be treated to eliminate the infectious potential, and sharps must be treated and either made unrecognizable or packaged properly prior to disposal.
Medical Waste can only be transported by a licensed Medical Waste hauler, like AMS, to a permitted transfer, storage, or treatment facility.
