I'm curious how you guys dispose of your used pins. Its technically illegal to dispose of biohazards in a dumpster, etc. Not that I really give a shit about that, I'm just paranoid about somebody (garbage man, bum look'n for cans, etc) finding them & blowing the whistle, etc. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Needle exchange in the UK. They provide the sealed yellow bins for you. You just take back the full bins when you want more. Damn mine seem to fill up fast! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Store them all in your protein jugs close them tight and tape em shut. Make sure all pins have their covering on them. This is the way I do it. Slopain ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I was just going to ask that...mine are starting to accumulate, too...I like Slopain's idea--and just my 2 cents, and I know this is obvious, but I definitely would not just add 'em in (even if they're sealed)with your other trash. You don't want someone looking through your sh*t and finding something with your name/address on it along with a bunch of used syringes... ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Slopain---thats a pretty good idea. Them big Isopure jugs would do the trick, huh. Do you just pitch that in the dumpster? I've been putting them in a trash bag under the sink, not exactly a permanent solution. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I agree, find some solid walled container which can seal either with tape or glue if needed. Just make sure the walls wont collapse when pushed upon. Dont want a dart to come thru. If need be fill with sand or equivalent. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Tear the pin off the syringe. I use a pair of pliars. Take the plunger out of the syringe and throw the fuckers in the trash. . .move on with your life. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

put them in a protein jug, drive them to a location AWAY from your house, at least a few miles, drop them in a dumpster or trash can at a gas station, even if they are found, they are a ways from your house. There is no way that can be linked to you. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I usually go to the grocery store or fast food rest to ditch em. I dont like the pliers to rip off the needle idea. If you have a sringe you have the covers for the needle, they fit snugly together, when you take them apart there loose. Id hate to be pricked by an anon needle anytime, shit Id be worried for 5 months that some junkie with aids did it lol. Slopain ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I save em, hang em on my walls like they are trophies. kidding. I do the protien container thing as well but I dont glue or tape it shut, just screw the lid on tight and pitch it, once it makes it to the truck you are ok, everything is smashed. trapsaplenty ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Ft Lauderdale, I throw away all of mine with the wrappers and pins in a orange juice jug(They cannot be seen through). When it fills up, i add toilet paper to it to stop all the noise and rattling. Also where do you work out in Lauderdale? I just moved down there. Have seen Gold's, the Zoo, and Firm. Tell me what you think. Are there any other hardcore gyms, not just pick up cardio spots. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I use the coke can method too. Works great. I take the needle off the sryinge. Put the plastic, pin, and sryinge in the can. I then put a few drops of dishsoap and fill it up with water. Crush the can- stop by the gas station and throw away. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
