Think Sharp!
Allegany County’s
Safe Sharps Disposal Program
Proper disposal of medical syringes can prevent injury,
illness and pollution. Allegany County DPW’s Safe Sharps Disposal Program makes
syringe disposal easy and safe. Residents can receive FREE individual sharps disposal containers for their used sharps at
all Allegany County pharmacies and solid waste facilities. Each Allegany County
transfer station has a sharps disposal kiosk available during normal operating
hours. Please do not place any loose needles, syringes, lancets or other sharps
items in the disposal kiosk. For more information, please contact Tim Palmiter
at 585-268-7282.
