What Our Clients in Vermont Say

We currently subscribe to BioServ Biomedical Management Solutions for all of our regulated medical waste and pharmaceutical management. We converted from another company last year for a variety of reasons. We have found BioServ very responsive to our needs, cost effective, efficient and cordial when coming into the facility, on the phone, or by email. We subscribe to their online education forum for new employees and annual training of current employees. I have recommend BioServ to other colleagues.

Rachel Bain, BS, RN, CNOR Director of Nursing, North Country Orthopaedic Ambulatory Surgery Center

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.

We switched to BioServ a year ago and what a difference, our bills went down and the service went up!

Vermont Medical Waste Regulations

  • Regulated Medical Waste (RMW) Definition
    RMW includes pathological and microbiological waste containing blood or OPIM, sharps, animal infectious waste, liquid or semi-liquid blood or OPIM, and items capable of releasing blood or OPIM during handling.
  • RMW Storage
    RMW 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.
  • Pathological Waste Disposal
    Pathological waste (human tissue, organs, or body parts–excluding teeth–removed during a medical procedure or autopsy) must be disposed of by incineration.
  • Chemotherapy Waste Disposal
    All trace chemotherapy waste must be incinerated or chemically neutralized.
  • Small Quantity Generator (SQG) Status
    SQGs generate less than 50 pounds of regulated medical waste per month.
  • Large Quantity Generator (LQG) Status
    LQGs generate 50 pounds or more of regulated medical waste per month.

Why is BioServ the Best Choice for Medical Waste Management in Vermont?

Although the environment is a major priority in the beautiful green state of Vermont, the state has been historically under-served and over-charged for environmental waste management services.

Because it is of critical importance that Vermont businesses manage their regulated waste in accordance with state regulations, BioServ offers comprehensive and cost-effective waste management programs, with on-call and automatic pick-up options to fit your specific needs. We employ NO middlemen or third-party transporters–your waste will be picked up by a BioServ employee and transported on a licensed and insured company truck to a permitted destruction facility.

VT Medical Waste Disposal FAQs

What regulations apply in Vermont?
Medical waste disposal in Vermont 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 Vermont 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 Vermont, 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 Vermont. 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 Vermont 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 Vermont 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 Vermont, 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 Vermont 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.
Which cities and regions do you serve?
BioServ provides medical waste management services throughout Vermont, serving healthcare providers in communities such as Brattleboro, Burlington, Colchester, Essex, Williston, Woodstock, and surrounding areas. We work with physician offices, dental practices, surgery centers, laboratories, schools, veterinary clinics, and other healthcare organizations across the state.
