What Our Clients Say

Our company has been with BioServ for a little over a year now and there are no other medical waste management companies that can compare with BioServ’s outstanding service. They are there when you need them without all the costly fees like other companies. I would recommend them to any company that would use medical waste management. Their company can’t be beat.

Judy Wolfe Purchasing Director, Syracuse Orthopedic Specialist

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

Holding a free dental clinic which provides free dental care for up to 1,000 patients in 2 days is a massive undertaking with many moving parts that all need attention. When BioServ came to us in 2012 and offered to manage start to finish all the Dental Waste Management for the RIMOM free dental clinic at no charge we knew we were dealing with a superior company. The BioServ team did not disappoint!! We are celebrating year 5 and BioServ has been with us every year providing us with top notch reliable service and peace of mind!

Dental Waste Management FAQs

What types of dental waste require separate handling and disposal?
Dental waste that may contain blood, chemical disinfectants, amalgam waste, or hazardous materials must be separately handled and disposed of. Dental offices may also generate pharmaceutical waste and sharps that require specialized waste disposal services.
Why is amalgam waste regulated in dental offices?
Amalgam waste is regulated because it may contain mercury and other hazardous materials. Proper dental waste disposal helps prevent contaminants from entering wastewater systems and supports compliance with EPA dental amalgam separator requirements.
Can extracted teeth be disposed of in regular trash?
Extracted teeth containing amalgam fillings should not be placed in regular trash. BioServ can help you properly manage extracted teeth and related materials according to applicable environmental and medical waste regulations.
What types of facilities must comply with federal dental waste regulations?
Dental offices, oral surgery centers, orthodontic practices, dental schools, and mobile dental clinics must comply with federal dental waste regulations.
