Used needles? there are places you're suppose to dispose them at or a special container ....cant think of it at the moment.....haha. A lot of ppl just throw them in the trash but its not the right thing to do.

I use a sharps container bought from my local walmart for $5 and then discard it into the dumpster when it's full and I've locked the cap.

It's "medical waste" and your supposed to use a sharps container and dispose of them at a special place/facility. Usually local outreach programs and blood donor clinics will accept them - do some scoping. Your gonna have a hell of a time getting them out of that protein tub - get a BIG sharps container & be safe lol.

actually wont be hard. all of them are recapped and the syringe is still there as well. Also stuck them back in the packaging lol. Im just over paranoid tossing any evidence in my trash so everything is there. just yank out, no chance of getting stuck.
Wish there was a quick easy drop off place where you can remain anon. sorta drive up, deposit and leave.

I throw the syringe out and put the caped needle tip in a sharps container. I have protein jugs full of insulin syringes though. I'm just nervous about taking them in.... Small town

I find the nearest beach or childrens playground.bahahah jk

In Canada you can get a free sharps container from shoppers. It's free and you can drop it off when it's full. If they ask just say it's for your b12 syringes. Not that they care anyhow....

id like to just save the pins and toss out the syringe, but I have room mates and Im afraid someone will nose through the trash.
Suppose to be moving back in with my wife soon now that we have worked some stuff out. Cant wait til she finds out about what Im doing now. no way im gonna hide this stuff from her

The protein jug is a good idea, I cap all of mine on both sides and store them in a box until it's full. I've been just throwing it in the dumpster but it would be a better idea to drop them off at a facility or even to duct tape the box up so it doesn't spill out when the trash compactors get to it.

the right thing to do is to put them in a plastic bag and toss it out of your car window on the street when there's none looking... always works 4 me

[Chi23]

i put them in an empty protein container and when its full duct tape it, draw a biohazard sign on it and throw it in a dumpster

Safest bet is a sharps container. If that's an issue, filling a used tub that has your needles in it with a can of expansion foam is the next best thing. If your responsible enough to do a cycle, you also need to be responsible with your used pins too.
