Clearwater Biohazard Disposal

Located on the Gulf of Mexico and famed for its fabulous beaches, Clearwater, Florida and St. Petersburg, Florida hosts thousands of tourists in addition to locals. It is one of the most popular areas in the nation for business and pleasure. Just 22 miles from Tampa, Clearwater and St. Petersburg is a destination for people all over the world.

This presents a challenge to the many hospitals, healthcare and medical facilities in the region, including Morton Plant Hospital, Largo Medical Center, Baycare Hospital and others. These are tasked with protecting the surrounding environments from injury, infection and disease.

When medical facilities produce biomedical waste for disposal, they need a service they can count on to handle with sensitivity and efficiency. That’s why over 4,500 customers have turned to WasteX for medical waste disposal services since 1997.
