Ware Disposal

Safe Needle and Sharps Disposal

Ware Disposal is now offering a safe, confidential and cost-effective medical waste disposal system to several of the communities we serve. The Sharps Disposal by Mail System provides individuals, companies and institutions a way of disposing used hypodermic needles, lancets, test strips and other small quantity medical waste. Each system includes a specially designed sharps container and a postage-prepaid shipping container ensuring your medical waste will be delivered safely by the U.S. Postal Service to a certified medical waste resource recovery facility. This mail back container is available for the home user or for commercial customers. All are designed to meet all local, state and federal requirements. All provide a worry-free, responsible and safe needle disposal system.

The best and safest option for sharps disposal is participating in a mail-back program. It is important that needles and other sharps are disposed of in a safe manner, in order to protect yourself and others who may come in contact with your waste cart, whether it is the trash hauler or sorters who work at sorting facilities. The United States Environmental Protection Agency offers guidelines on how to safely dispose sharps and other medical wastes.

Wishing you a happy and safe holiday season!

In California, it’s the law to recycle. Our cities and counties are required to divert at least 50 percent of their trash away from landfills, whether through waste reduction, reuse or recycling programs. Ware Disposal is a proud partner with communities all around the Orange County, Los Angeles County and San Diego County to help them achieve this goal.

The law was enacted in 1989 as the California Integrated Waste Management Act or Assembly Bill 939, and set diversion goals of 25 percent by 1995 and 50 percent by 2000 for each jurisdiction. All cities and counties must have achieved the 50 percent diversion rate by the beginning of 2006 or face the possibility of up to a $10,000 per day fine from the state.

It’s important for all of us to play a part in helping our communities keep materials out of landfills. If each and every resident were to lead by example, our diversion rate would go up – and we would recoup other tangible benefits as well. We would conserve space in our landfills, which in turn preserves open space, saves money on purchased goods and guards our natural resources for our children and grandchildren.

Here are some tips for reducing or diverting your household waste:

•Take advantage of any convenient services offered directly at your home, such as curbside recycling (where you can put all of your recyclables into one bin), curbside green waste collection and household hazardous waste collection.

•If your workplace doesn’t offer a formal recycling program, considering starting one or bring your recyclables home for collection.

•Donate used clothing, toys, books, magazines, appliances and furniture to local charities or non-profits that might give them a second life, or become a member of CalMAX or click on this link and find others in your community who might find your old items useful.

•Buy items in bulk or use refills whenever possible to cut down on excess packaging and opt against “disposable” items – clean with a washable rag, shave with a rechargeable razor and eat on cleanable cookware, not paper or plastic plates. If you must use a disposable item, check to see if it is recyclable.

•If you are remodeling your home or work for a company involved in construction or demolition activities, look for opportunities to recycle or reuse the items from the project. The dirt, concrete and glass from these projects can and should be re-used to cut down on the dense materials taking up space in our landfills. Many solid waste companies who work with large businesses and commercial and residential projects offer a number of recycling programs – these opportunities should be explored.

•Take your smaller loads of solid waste from clean ups, clean outs, and weekend projects to facilities that recycle such as Madison Materials for recycling.

If we all do our part, we can help reduce the waste our communities generate!

OUR Commitment to the Environment

Ware Disposal is committed to lessening our carbon footprint on the environment. Our efforts prove that we are a leader in Orange County in environmental protection, and solid waste and recycling excellence. One of the ways we help protect the environment is by updating our fleet to natural gas-powered trash hauling trucks in Orange County and Los Angeles County. These trucks allow us to not only be an environmental friendly but also to help the cities and counties we serve to go green.
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)
CNG is a clean burning fuel that is better for the environment than traditional petroleum-based gasoline.

CNG Vehicles
CNG powered vehicles produce almost half of the emissions that federal guidelines allow. By 2009 Ware Disposal hauling vehicles will be one of the cleanest burning fleets in the Southland and perhaps by size, in the United States. Each CLEAN NATURAL GAS vehicle we operate is the equivalent of taking 100 vehicles off the road each day..
