Medical Waste Collection Offers Tampa Eco-Friendly Waste Management

Online, January 24, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Medical Waste Collection now offers the Tampa Bay area an eco-friendly, greener alternative to medical waste management. The company proudly announces the opening of its Tampa location, which began providing regulated medical waste collection services to businesses in the area this month. The company solely utilizes incineration for waste disposal as part of a waste-to-energy program.

Regulated medical waste is potentially infectious waste such as sharps, needles, germ cultures, and anything tainted by blood or bodily fluids. This waste must be disposed of properly per Florida Department of Health regulations. Modern incineration technology provides a safe, thorough method of eliminating hazardous medical waste while reducing the burden on landfills. Medical Waste Collection is proud to be part of a Waste to Energy program, which utilizes waste that would otherwise impact landfills to provide an alternative energy source.
