Situated in the Florida panhandle is Pensacola, the westernmost Floridian city. A seaport that connects with the Gulf of Mexico, Pensacola is nicknamed the City of Five Flags because it has been ruled by five different countries in its time as a city: Spain, France, Great Britain, the Confederate States of America, and the United States of America. Although it is susceptible to hurricanes, it is a resilient city battling through Opal, Ivan, Dennis, and Michael among other major storms. It has trained thousand of naval aviators including such illustrious names as John Glenn and Neil Armstrong.

The medical needs of the Pensacola residents are met by several healthcare systems including the Sacred Heart Health System. The West Florida hospital and the West Breeze hospital also take care of patients in the area. However, all of these healthcare facilities rely on medical waste disposal companies to run in a healthy and efficient way.

Biomedical waste disposal is the process that removes blood, tissue, and other bodily fluids from the premises in order to contain the spread of infectious disease and pathogens.. It also includes sharps waste disposal which eliminates the danger posed by used and contaminated needles, blades, and surgical knives. Having a company that properly handles the biohazardous waste disposal is crucial to protecting the staff and the patients of a particular facility.

The delicate handling and proper training needed for medical waste disposal can be found in WasteX.
