Clinics and practices
A fertility clinic is a clinic and a laboratory in the same building, and the waste reflects it: retrieval and transfer procedures on one side, embryology and andrology benches on the other.

What an IVF clinic generates
The clinical side is straightforward: retrieval needles, transfer catheters, monitoring draws and the sharps from a patient's own injectable stimulation protocol, often returned to the clinic in a container the patient was given.
The laboratory side adds pipette tips, dishes, slides and specimen tubes. Both are regulated medical waste, both belong in containers we supply, and both benefit from a fixed interval because cycle volume is planned months ahead.
What applies to you
Nothing here is unusual, but the lab bench and the treatment room fall under slightly different habits, and both need covering.
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 applies across the clinic and the laboratory alike.
Point-of-use containers belong in the laboratory as well as the procedure room.
Sharps a patient brings back are collected with the rest. Issue a proper container rather than accepting a coffee tin.
Both come with every pickup and both are yours to file.

Two ways to dispose
It comes down to how much you make. Steady volume suits a truck on a schedule. An office that fills a few containers a month can skip the truck and mail them back.

For small quantity generators, 0 to 50 lbs a month
