What Counts as Clinical Waste?

You don’t need to be a hospital to produce clinical waste. If your business uses needles, handles bodily fluids, or generates anything that could pose an infection risk, you’re legally required to dispose of it properly.

Common examples we deal with every day:

• Used needles and sharps
• Swabs, wipes, and dressings
• Contaminated PPE
• Tattoo and piercing waste
• Beauty injectable waste and clinical consumables
• Offensive waste (nappies, pads, incontinence waste)

All of this is covered under UK legislation including the Environmental Protection Act, Hazardous Waste Regulations, and HTM 07-01. Don’t worry if that sounds heavy — Anway handles the compliance so you don’t have to.

What Anway Does (So You Don’t Have To)

In short: we take care of the entire clinical waste management process.

1. We supply the right containers

Sharps boxes, clinical waste bins, offensive waste bins, sanitary units — all colour-coded, compliant, and placed exactly where you need them.

2. We collect on your schedule

Weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or fully bespoke. We keep your waste areas tidy and your business running smoothly.

3. We handle all the legal paperwork

Every collection comes with:

• Duty of Care Waste Transfer Notes
• Hazardous Waste Consignment Notes
• Digital signatures and cloud-based logging
• Audit-ready documentation

You stay compliant automatically — no chasing, no confusion.

4. We ensure safe transport & disposal

As licensed waste carriers, everything is taken via approved UK treatment or incineration facilities.

5. We offer flexible, friendly service

Need more collections during busy periods? Need to downscale? No problem — just tell us.
