Large Sharps Bin FAQs

What are the largest sharps containers available?

The 2.5-gallon option is the largest medical sharps container in our online store. However, for incredibly large clinics and hospitals, there are even larger sharps bins. These range from 18-gallon to 45-gallon industrial-sized bins for heavy-duty applications. Typically, these bin sizes are used in central waste collection departments, as opposed to nurse stations or general laboratories.

Why are these large sharps containers translucent?

We offer clear sharps containers to help your team ensure safe usage. Translucent plastic for our big sharps containers ensures your staff can see exactly when the sharps reach the fill line, so they know when to dispose of the sharps box and replace it. Overfilling containers increases the risk of stick injuries during disposal. Follow all FDA regulations to enhance your workplace safety.

What is the ideal sharps container size for my application?

At Post Medical, we feature a variety of sharps containers that can provide options for many industries. Take a look at the various sizes and our recommendations:

  • Small Sharps Containers: Ranging from 1-4 quarts, these smaller disposal boxes are designed for home use and travel.
  • Medium Sharps Containers: Between five quarts and eight gallons, these sharps containers are the standard for dental sharps disposal, pharmacies, and exam rooms.
  • Large Sharps Containers: Up to 45 gallons, the largest containers are used in surgical centers and extremely high-volume hospital waste departments.
