Livestock Waste Disposal Information
How to Dispose of Common Livestock Related Waste
Livestock Waste Disposal Informational Flyer (PDF Download)SHARPS - Syringes, and other medical waste with needles, go into an impermeable container (sharps container, a coffee can or plastic laundry jug) and are disposed of at HHW facilities. Sharps are dangerous when placed in the trash. Trash is handled by people at some point during processing. By properly disposing of sharps, you lessen the risk of injury to others. Visit www.sbcfire.org/hhw or call 1-909-382-5401.
