How to Dispose of Medical Sharps in Lowell, MA

Lowell has no permanent household hazardous waste depot. There are only two Hazardous Waste Days in 2026 — April 4 and November 7 — so medical sharps has to be stored safely until one of those dates. Keep material sealed in its original container, and never pour chemicals down a drain or put them in the trash cart.
