Georgia Medical Waste Management | Medical & Biohazardous Waste Disposal

When you’ve got Georgia on your mind, it’s hard not to think of peaches, peanuts, Coca-Cola, Gone with the Wind and the iconic voices of Otis Redding and Ray Charles. Sitting on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, Georgia neighbors Tennessee, North and South Carolina, Florida and Alabama. Home to about 10.5 million, this state is bursting with history, a unique gastronomical footprint and goobers (that’s peanuts for the rest of us). 

 

If you’re looking for scenic beaches, rugged mountain ranges, waterfalls, theme parks, wildlife, soul food or cosmopolitan cities, the Georgians have it all at their doorstep. From Atlanta, the state’s capital, you can bike, skate, run or saddle up on the ‘Silver Comet Trail’ all the way to Alabama. If driving is more your thing, stop by the world’s largest drive-in diner, Varsity. Set on 2 acres, these guys churn out 2,500 lbs. of potatoes, 5,000 fried pies, 300 gallons of chili and 2 miles of hot dogs from scratch EVERY day! Need to get back to nature? Take a trip to Stone Mountain Park, packed with stunning hiking trails. In summer they put on the world’s largest laser light show and snow tubing is a must in winter. In the spring you must visit Macon, the cherry blossom capital of the world - it's magical when all the trees are on bloom!

If adrenaline is more your thing, hurtle down the 11-storey ‘Georgia Scorcher’ rollercoaster at Six Flags. Try fly-boarding or zoom across the lake on a zip line at Lanier Islands’ Margaritaville or brave the Toccoa River Swinging Bridge. For sports fans, every April, eyes are on Augusta for The Masters golf tournament or catch the Atlanta Braves or the Atlanta Falcons at a home game. If you prefer to participate, the ‘Peach Tree Road Race’ is on every 4th of July weekend.

If size matters, you can’t miss the Jimmy Carter Smiling Peanut, Marietta’s Big Chicken, Ashburn’s Giant Peanut Monument, Expedition Bigfoot at the Sasquatch Museum or paying a visit to the stunning Hindu Temple of Atlanta, the largest Hindu temple outside of India. If mini is more your thing, The Dwarf Castle in Alpharetta, Roosevelt’s Little White House in Warm Springs and Atlanta’s Tiny Doors should all be on your to-see list. Foodies can’t take a trip to Georgia without sampling local delicacies including: snow cream, chicken mull, biscuits and gravy, sweet Vidalia onions and boiled green peanuts.

and then there is healthcare...

Biomedical waste shall be stored in leak proof, rigid (and for sharps: puncture resistant) containers and securely closed before transportation. The containers must be labeled with the universal biohazard symbol and the word “biohazard” so that it is readily visible from any lateral direction.
