RecycleMore has added 8 new collection sites for home-generated medical needles/sharps.
Used needles and other sharps are dangerous to people and pets if not disposed of safely. Sharps should never be placed in trash cans or recycling bins, and never flushed down the toilet: this puts workers, family members, and children at risk.
To help keep the community safe, new sharps collection kiosks are located at the following sites:
1) *San Pablo Police Station - 13880 San Pablo Avenue, San Pablo, CA 94806
2) City of Richmond locations
