edk2-vkjhEnvironment30 columns
Locations where NYC residents can drop off their pharmaceuticals and syringes for safe disposal. For more information, see: https://www.nyc.gov/site/dsny/collection/get-rid-of/pharmaceutical-sharps-drop-off.page. Carefully place household sharps in leak-proof and puncture-resistant container labeled "Home Sharps - not for recycling". Bring to a collection center or drop-off site or discard as trash. ALL New York State hospitals and nursing homes are required by law to act as collection centers for used household sharps, including syringes and lancets, with no identification required.
