Pharmaceutical waste removal and management — Susquehanna, PA

Services offered

We serve both small and large generators of pharmaceutical waste. Services include:

• Routine scheduled pickup for expired or unwanted medications
• On-call collections for urgent or unexpected waste volumes
• Secure containment and transport using approved packaging
• Chain-of-custody documentation and disposal certificates
• Guidance on segregation of hazardous, controlled, and non-hazardous pharmaceuticals

All operations follow applicable U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) guidance and state regulations for medication disposal.

How the process works

We begin with a site assessment to identify types of pharmaceutical waste, volume and storage needs. Following assessment we recommend a collection schedule and the appropriate packaging. On collection day, trained personnel secure and transport material to an authorized facility and deliver disposal documentation to the client.

Site assessment and planning

Assessments focus on regulatory classification, controlled substance handling and on-site storage risks. Recommendations are written so staff can implement procedures immediately.

Secure collection and chain of custody

Every pickup includes tamper-evident seals, manifesting and tracking. Clients receive a signed disposition record after material reaches the approved treatment facility.

Why choose professional disposal

Improper disposal of medications can pose risks to public safety, the environment and your facility’s compliance status. Professional removal reduces liability and ensures that pharmaceuticals are treated in permitted facilities under controlled conditions.

• Regulatory compliance and reduced administrative burden
• Secure handling and reduced diversion risk for controlled substances
• Clear documentation that supports inspections and audits

Who we serve

Typical clients include:

• Retail and hospital pharmacies
• Medical and dental clinics

Compliance and recordkeeping

We maintain records for each collection and provide clients with the necessary paperwork to demonstrate proper disposition. Documentation includes manifests, chain-of-custody forms and final disposal certificates. This supports state and federal audits and helps facilities meet licensing requirements.

Controlled substances

Handling controlled pharmaceuticals follows strict protocols. We coordinate with licensed agents when return or transfer requires DEA-sanctioned procedures.
