Frequently Asked Questions
How often should Pharmacies in Harvard schedule medical waste pickup?
Pharmacies typically schedule quarterly or monthly pickups for pharmaceutical waste, depending on prescription volume and returns. High-volume retail pharmacies may accumulate waste more quickly and benefit from bi-monthly service, particularly for controlled substance destruction.
What containers do Pharmacies need?
Pharmacies need pharmaceutical waste containers (blue or black) for non-hazardous drug disposal, separate RCRA hazardous waste containers for listed drugs, DEA-authorized controlled substance collection receptacles, and — if operating a sharps program — sharps mail-back kits or container swap services.
