Medical Waste
The convenience and efficiency of using a single bin for all medical waste.
By law, medical waste requires special methods of disposal that most businesses are not equipped to handle internally. With RST, there is no need for separate bins for different types of waste. You only need a single bin for all clinical waste types: Your pharmaceutical and anatomical waste and sealed sharps containers can go in a single bin to simplify your processes.
RST staff all hold a current certificate of federal police clearance, enabling us to pick up medical waste in an aged care environment without compromising your OHS and legal obligations.
RST Waste Services handles all types of clinical waste, including:
- Disposable surgical equipment
- Pharmaceutical waste
- Sharps disposal
- X-ray waste
- Quarantine waste
- Cytotoxic waste
- Anatomical waste
Our medical waste pickup schedules are as flexible as your business is. Whether you require pickup bi-weekly, fortnightly, monthly or quarterly, RST can help you. Every RST pickup is performed by fully trained, uniformed staff.
The Environmental Protection Authority implemented waste tracking on July 1, 2002, for clinical and regulated waste, pharmaceuticals, drugs and medicines. RST Waste Services can lighten the administrative load for your business, taking care of your waste tracking requirements. We can act as your agent in waste disposal, by keeping your waste records for you, and forwarding them as required to the EPA.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum duration for a waste disposal contract with RST?
There are no contractual obligations: You can use our services as little or as often as you need to. You are not bound to us for a specific term, as with many other medical waste and sanitation companies.
My workplace requires a secure waste disposal. Are you able to provide this?
All RST staff hold a current certificate of federal police clearance, enabling us to pick up waste without compromising your OHS and legal obligations.
Our 240lt wheelie bins have lids that can be padlocked and will remain locked whilst in transit to the disposal area. On arrival at the incinerator the bins are unlocked and emptied into the incinerator in a controlled environment. We believe this gives you, our customer, a greater confidence that the confidentiality of your documents is being maintained to a high integrity.
To help you fulfil your legal requirements for confidentiality we supply a certificate of destruction outlining the volume and location of destruction.
Do you provide separate pharmaceutical and anatomical waste containers?
As our medical waste containers all get incinerated we only provide a single bin for all clinical waste types. Your pharmaceutical and anatomical waste and sealed sharps containers can go in a single bin to simplify your processes.
