Frequently Asked Questions

What do the colours mean on sharps bins?

▼

Sharps bin colours indicate the type of waste they are intended for: A yellow lid is for needles, syringes, and sharps contaminated with medicinal products; an orange lid is for sharps not contaminated with medicines (e.g. blood only); a purple lid is for cytotoxic or cytostatic waste; and a blue lid is for non-sharp pharmaceutical waste.

What colour sharps bin is for needles?

▼

Use a yellow-lidded sharps bin for needles that have been used with medication. For non-medicinal sharps, an orange-lidded bin may be suitable.

How do I assemble a sharps bin?

▼

Most sharps bins come in two parts (a base and a lid). Firmly press the lid onto the base until it clicks into place. Ensure the temporary and final closures function as intended. Always follow the printed instructions on the bin or packaging.

How do I open a sharps bin?

▼

To open, use the temporary closure flap on the lid. Never attempt to remove the lid completely once sealed. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for safe use.

How do I dispose of a sharps container?

▼

Once full (never overfilled), the sharps bin should be sealed using the permanent closure and disposed of according to local clinical waste disposal regulations, typically through council collection or healthcare services.

Do chemists take sharps bins?

▼

Some pharmacies or chemists do accept filled sharps bins for disposal, but this depends on local arrangements. It’s best to call ahead or check with your local council or NHS provider to confirm whether your local pharmacy participates.
