What Our Clients in Connecticut Say

BioServ has been one of my top 3 vendors for my business. The BioServ team is a pleasure to work with – very responsive to all our needs, whether it pertains to a service request or a simple question about an item on our invoice. BioServ recognizes that communication is key to a successful relationship, closely followed by transparency. There are no hidden or additional fees added to their already reasonable prices. Finally, the OSHA and BBP materials they provide and training they conduct is extremely informative, thorough, and well-presented. There is no doubt that I will never seek another vendor to handle all our waste management services going forward!
Vicki Purugganan Regional Operations Director, AFC Doctors Express Urgent Care – NY & CT

We have been using BioServ’s services since April 2013. Their staff has been there every step of the way. They have made every “challenge” that we faced seem effortless, including onsite training. The staff (from the office staff to the person picking up) has always been professional, courteous and eager to help us understand the process without fail. It is great to know that the BioServ team is only a phone call away! We always get great pricing and exceptional service!
Jodi Damery Lab Manager, DEKA Research

BioServ helped our new surgery center get our biomedical waste program in place. They are always available by phone or email to answer any question or address any concerns. They give us peace of mind knowing that they are here to support our center.
Cheryl Parent Director of Nursing, Glastonbury Surgery Center

BioServ has always been great at disposing of our medical waste. They handle all receiving state filing of paperwork. They were also very helpful when our office was flooded and needed their services right away.
Paul Gambardella, DPM

BioServ provides stellar, reliable customer service with straightforward pricing and no hidden fees!
Barbara Hunt, BGS Director, Group Purchasing, Women’s Health USA, Inc.

BioServ knows the needs of our ASC business and provides consistently good, dependable service, with timely return of manifest documentation. They are cost effective and consistent with their pricing, which had been a problem with previous vendors. BioServ has provided biomedical and pharmaceutical waste management services as well as OSHA education and training at five ASCs with which I have been affiliated. I would highly recommend working with them.
Pat Armstrong Vice President of Operations, Southington Surgery Center

Very knowledgeable and courteous staff. BioServ assisted us every step of the way in setting up our new lab, and they continue to provide excellent service whenever we need them. They truly go above and beyond for their customers and make them more than just a name and number to make sure we get personalized, professional service.

CT Medical Waste Regulations

Chemotherapy Waste
Chemotherapy waste (any waste that has come in contact with an antineoplastic agent) must be disposed of by incineration.
Pathological Waste
Pathological waste (human tissue, organs, or body parts—excluding teeth—removed during a medical procedure or autopsy) must be disposed of by incineration or interment.
Regulated Medical Waste (RMW) / Infectious Waste
Regulated medical waste or infectious waste includes sharps, needles, broken glass, slides, surgical instruments, tubing, blood, blood-soaked materials, bodily fluids (OPIM), and any items contaminated with blood or bodily fluids (OPIM).
Biomedical Waste Storage
Biomedical waste must be stored in labeled containers separate from other waste. It must be kept in a locked area with restricted access and must be protected from water, precipitation, wind, and animals.
Medical Waste Generators
Medical waste generators are required to create and maintain facility-specific biomedical waste management plans, to train employees regularly in proper waste segregation procedures, and to keep all disposal records on-site for 3 years.
Small Quantity Generator (SQG) Status
Those generating less than 50 lbs of biomedical waste in a month or in a single shipment are considered Small Quantity Generators. SQGs are subject to fewer regulations.

Connecticut Hazardous Pharmaceutical Waste Regulations

Connecticut is the only state in the country that has not adopted the 2008 federal EPA ruling de-regulating epinephrine-based medications. CT DEEP still recognizes epinephrine in any formulation as an RCRA hazardous waste, and therefore it must be managed accordingly. It is critical that Connecticut’s medical practices take extra precaution to ensure they are properly managing their waste pharmaceuticals, and BioServ can help.

How BioServ Helps You Stay Compliant

CT Medical Waste Disposal FAQs

What regulations apply in Connecticut?

Medical waste disposal in Connecticut is governed by state-specific regulations as well as applicable federal requirements from OSHA, the EPA, and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). Healthcare facilities, dental offices, veterinary practices, laboratories, schools, and other medical waste generators must follow strict requirements for the segregation, packaging, labeling, storage, transportation, treatment, and documentation of Regulated Medical Waste (RMW). Facilities are also responsible for proper manifest tracking, recordkeeping, and understanding their cradle-to-grave liability for regulated waste. BioServ stays informed on regulatory updates to help healthcare providers safely manage their medical waste responsibilities.

How do you help maintain compliance?

BioServ helps healthcare facilities throughout Connecticut manage medical waste safely by providing OSHA-compliant collection containers, scheduled Regulated Medical Waste (RMW) collection, DOT-compliant transportation, and Manifest of Waste Disposal documentation after each pickup. Our services support adherence to the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) by helping facilities properly handle sharps, infectious waste, and other biohazardous materials. Documented chain of custody and reliable waste tracking also help reduce cradle-to-grave liability.

What types of medical waste do you collect?

BioServ collects a broad range of Regulated Medical Waste (RMW) throughout Connecticut, including sharps waste, red bag waste, pathological waste, trace chemotherapy waste, pharmaceutical waste, laboratory waste, microbiological cultures, and other biohazardous materials. We support physician offices, dental practices, ambulatory surgery centers, veterinary clinics, schools, blood banks, laboratories, and long-term care facilities with waste solutions designed around their specific waste streams and operational requirements.

Do you provide sharps containers and collection supplies?

Yes. BioServ supplies OSHA-compliant, puncture-resistant sharps containers, red bag liners, biohazard containers, pharmaceutical waste containers, and other medical waste collection supplies for healthcare providers throughout Connecticut. We help facilities select the right container sizes and service frequency based on their waste volume and daily operations. Proper segregation and appropriate containers help reduce exposure risks and promote safer handling practices.

How often can pickups be scheduled?

Pickup schedules in Connecticut are flexible and based on your facility's waste volume, storage needs, and operational requirements. BioServ offers weekly, biweekly, monthly, and other service schedules depending on your location and the amount of Regulated Medical Waste (RMW) generated. Flexible collection options help facilities manage waste efficiently while avoiding unnecessary storage concerns or service interruptions.

Do you offer emergency or on-demand service?

Yes. In addition to scheduled collection, BioServ offers emergency and on-demand medical waste pickup services throughout Connecticut whenever possible. Whether your facility experiences an unexpected increase in RMW volume, a biohazard spill, or requires immediate removal of infectious waste or sharps, our team works quickly to arrange safe collection and transportation. This responsive support helps healthcare providers address urgent waste needs without disrupting daily operations.

What documentation is provided after each pickup?

Following each medical waste pickup in Connecticut, BioServ provides the required Manifest of Waste Disposal and other applicable documentation. Our manifest tracking and chain-of-custody records provide verification that Regulated Medical Waste has been properly transported and managed. When applicable, customers may also receive a Certificate of Destruction or treatment confirmation to support inspections, internal records, and audit preparation.

What factors determine the cost?

Medical waste disposal pricing in Connecticut depends on several factors, including your facility type, the volume and type of Regulated Medical Waste (RMW) generated, container sizes, pickup frequency, transportation requirements, and service location. Additional considerations may include sharps waste, pharmaceutical waste, emergency pickups, and specialized waste streams. BioServ works with facilities to identify an efficient waste management approach based on their needs and budget.
