when I dispose of my syringes I cut the pin up into pieces and put them into a can and melt them, what are some other ways to dispose of them, I think if you use you should know how to dispose of them properly,
 
Just drive down the street with a bag full of them and throw them out the window! J/K

I always put the caps on the needles and save them in a bag till I have a bunch ,then put them in a box and throw them in a dumpster at a construction site! :)
 
Pins

I cut the pins in small pieces and drop them with the barrel in a 12 oz can and crush the can. I take that crushed can and drop it in the recycle collector for cans. They will be melted down soon enough. My work has collection sites for cans, plastic,batteries, you name it.

I like to use an old protien jug as my sharps container. I always recap my needles and fill the jug. Then I pitch the jug in a nearbt dumpster.
 
Take em to a hospital or a doc office,i save just the needles and when i get alot of them thats where i take em, feels kinda weird but i know no kids will find them and hurt themselves
 
I just throw them out in the trash. It goes straight to the landfill. Why go to all the trouble doing anything else?

1) not nice in case your friendly "sanitation engineer" gets poked

2) the police can legally search your garbage without notifying you and without a warrant. And then totally F you. This has been upheld about a billion times in court.

Where I live, our city garbage trucks lift and empty our trash cans with mechanical arms attached to the truck. There are no "sanitation engineers" that can get poked.

i like to sprinkle mine along the beach or at the park...jk, i'm sorry i couldn't resist. i just make cure that i,ve recaped it, then put it back in the wrapper and crubble some paper around it so my parents don't find it in the trash.
 
What I do is get a used jug of bleach, and drop my pinz in there, The material is thick enough..
Then I drop off in a dumpster someplace with the cap on tightly..
Never had any problems with this method..

Ditto............then as soon as its dumped a bulldozer is covering it with dirt....Plus the cops can't trase them back to you unless you don't put your name on them. Just cap them put them in a jug and throw them away.
 
jeez what was i thinking...thats sick and twisted. no really a much better way to dispose of them is go to mc donalds and bury them in the plastic ball play pen. yes thats much better.

Just to clarify. They can ony do a warrantless search on your garbage if it is generally accesible to the public or without substantial intrusion on privacy. ..like on your curb, and they still need probable cause to be there looking through it.

I should've been more specific. Good point. Not like they can break into your kitchen and search your trash under the sink! ;)

Once the trash is taken to the land fill there are sanitation engineers walking around with shovels moving things around and making things neater. There are actually a bunch of people walking around on the land fills working, not just trucks and bulldozers.

And at a lot of these sites, they allow people to come and dump their own truck load of trash. So that means you also have regular people running around on the land fills.

I've been burying mine in the sand box of our local playground, but your idea sounds much better. Plusm, I can pick up a snack to boot.
Thanks bro'

I have a dog and sometimes when I pick his shit up I put the pins in there and then put it in my trash, the cops love it when they have to dig through dog shit, fuck those fucking cops

Not right! Regular people are not aloud near dumping area they have a separate site. Rolloffs dump then Machines move it. To be honest there is so much other crap to cut yourself on to get stuck by a pin there is like finding a needle in a haystack...cLeRks
 
I never dispose needles because I've been using the same one for years now ;) . Seriously get one of those brown envelopes and put them in there seal it up and mix it with regular trash or find a dumpster...cLeRks
