What is a Needle Sweep?

A needle sweep is the careful inspection, collection and safe removal of:

  • Used needles and syringe

  • Sharps and lances

  • Discarded medical items

  • Contaminated waste found in and around a property

These items can present a serious risk if handled incorrectly. Our team uses the proper protective equipment, safe handling methods and approved disposal procedures to remove hazardous sharps without putting occupants or visitors at unnecessary risk.
