Syringe/Needle Disposal

Used syringes and needles are considered medical waste and can present a biohazard if not properly disposed. Watt Plaza is not a medical office building; therefore the property does not provide sharps containers to properly dispose of used needles and syringes. All needles and syringes should be properly disposed of outside the property. Please refrain from placing syringes and needles in any waste receptacles located on the property.

Please reference the links below for more information on sharps disposal and preventing needlesticks.
