Loose syringes should never go in household trash, because they can stab sanitation workers. Other items may carry residue. A cleanup team seals and disposes of everything the safe way.
Vehicles can hold syringes, residue and odor in seats, carpets and vents. Ask whether the team cleans vehicles and how soft materials are treated. Crews use the same protective gear and sealed containers as in a building.

In Texas, haulers of other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).
If anyone is hurt or unresponsive, call 911 first, then call for cleanup.
