What needle & sharps cleanup covers:
For outdoor spaces, the crew walks fence lines, planters, corners and bushes where needles collect.

Needles, syringes and any other sharps are gathered and sealed as they are found.
Surfaces are disinfected, the area gets a final walk-through, and the sealed containers are hauled away.
The cost of needle & sharps cleanup in Warren, PA depends on the amount of material, how it is packed and how it is hauled.
