How to Dispose of PPE Waste

One of the biggest challenges people face today is trying to recycle PPE. The single-use Disposable Face Masks, Gloves and Disinfecting Wipes do not belong in your recycling bins. Consider these items comparable to a used Band-Aid! Toss them in your trash bin.

Per the CDC these items can be disposed of in your regular trash bins. The CDC recommends placing your Disposable Face Masks, Gloves and Disinfecting Wipes in a plastic baggie prior to placing them in your trash bin.
