Pin Disposal

[Roaddkingg]

After my workout today I stopped by the pharmacy to check on prices on 3cc bd syringes. I ordered a 100 since they were so cheap. The alcohol pads were like 2 bucks also so I will pick them up tomarrow when my barrels come in. Anyway....as I was talking to the pharmacy guy he asked me how I dispose of my needles. I thought he was going to show me a sharps container but he came back with this really neat little divice that snaps the pin off and stores it. This little item was only 4.95 and holds up to 1500 needles. I think it's just the neatest little item and am going to pick one up. This way he was explaining to me when you throw your used items away they cant hurt anyone by accident. I saw a post here a while back about disposal so I wanted to share my find. I bet you all would like one of these little items.

i have a friend who is a garbageman......he says at a minimum to make sure the pin is capped, but remove it from the syringe and put them in an old milkjug and seal it........a gallon jug can hold quite a bit too

I like heavyiron's method of throwing them in sandbox's at the local public schools.

What about the play-pits at mcdonalds with the big plastic balls?

Wont work, the grease coming off of the kids skin makes the balls almost adhesive to the pins. And no one wants shiney balls of death do they?

Doesn't anyone recycle? Give them to drug addicts.

So you guys got me thinking. So I tried something. I have a couple of blow dart guns. If you know what they are and what the darts look like you might know where I'm going with this. 21G 1 1/2 work PERFECT!!!!

Awesome.

In all seriousness, and a completely unrelated question, do you think that Rohypnol could be made into a liquid form and would a blowgun be an effective delivery agent?

Just for scientific research.

[Hoglander]

I don't think so. I was just going to write "AIDS" on the plastic part as sort of delivery package, if you will.

you can buy a sharps box here, or also like the op you can get the snap boxes.

the other way I think is decent so no one like the garbage man has to put up with it etc, is put them in a large jar, or jug or a bucket keep it out of reach of kids, and when you get it full or near to, throw some cement powderin there and some water then throw it in the trash, burry it or drop it off your boat when your fishing.

put them in a jar and take them to the hospital they cant say anything about it.

Put everything in empty 5 lbs protein jar...
