Laboratory Equipment Recycling and Disposition in Northern California

Equipment for Laboratory Testing

Companies often overlook testing laboratories in the healthcare landscape. While some specialize in disposing of electrical equipment used for patient treatment, few cater to the unique needs of testing laboratories.

The medical testing field, due to its relatively smaller scale compared to healthcare, is often integrated with other healthcare services. However, at Modern Waste Solutions, we take pride in addressing and distinguishing the distinct requirements of laboratory electronic waste.

Why a Professional and Reliable Recycling Company is a Must

Proper disposal methods need to be undergone by large electrical equipment. There are three important reasons why large electrical equipment should be disposed of properly:

Safety
Responsibility
Confidentiality
Hazardous materials like chlorinated plastics, flame retardants, lead, and mercury are contained in large electrical equipment, posing environmental risks. Medical testing equipment may also contain biological materials such as blood or other biological substances, necessitating safe disposal to mitigate risks. Modern Waste Solutions specializes in managing these hazardous materials, complying with federal regulations.

To prevent environmental damage from contributing to landfills, professional recycling is needed, particularly for businesses such as medical laboratories that produce a significant amount of waste.

When disposing of medical electronic equipment, confidentiality is also crucial. Modern Waste Solutions ensures secure destruction of sensitive patient information stored on devices, protecting privacy.
