I saw the thing about sharps containers and let me be the one to say: A lot of things we consume on a daily basis, when properly sealed and marked, can be a sharps container! I use jugs of water (need distilled water for my CPAP) that I've emptied, bc they're rather tough. You have to clearly mark that they are a sharps container, with sharpies, and tape the top lid closed. You can also use aluminum cans, soda bottles, and other jugs (think lemonade, Kool-Aid, Sunny-D, etc!) again you just have to tape the top shut with duct tape preferably and sharpie it to death with a warning!

hey thank you so much for sending this ask, you reminded me that i got a handout about this at my local library! thank you for your input, i'll add that info to complement yours. keep in mind, this is written from the perspective of helping homeless people dispose of sharps, but anyone can benefit from this:

[Image ID: A photograph of a small horizontally oriented card detailing how to safely dispose of needles. It reads:

DISPOSING OF NEEDLES

Use gloves or thick material to pick up needle.

Place needle inside an empty container (thicker plastic is better, but is not always an option)

Seal the container- with tape if possible as an extra precaution.

Write "biohazard" on the container with a market (I recommend carrying a sharpie along with your Naloxone kit).

dispose of the container in the trash, or call the fire dept or local needle exchange program, if you want someone else to dispose of it.

There are two graphics displaying what types of containers to use are preferable.

The graphic on the left shows a milk jug and a small handheld personal disposable water bottle with a thumbs down graphic. The graphic is attempting to convey that any plastic containers with very thin walls should be avoided.

The graphic on the right shows a thumbs up next to kitty litter, laundry detergent and shampoo bottles, attempting to convey that plastic containers with thicker more durable walls should be chosen if possible.

End image ID.]

this goes to anyone who uses needles for whatever reason, HRT, insulin, substance use, whatever it may be, having sharps containers is important. and i agree mark the container clearly that it is a biohazard and a sharps container. "SHARPS" does the trick. hope this can be of help to some people!
