Tennessee Medical Waste Disposal. From hospitals to laboratories, Tennessee medical facilities produce a vast amount of medical waste every day. This waste can range from used syringes and bandages to laboratory samples and body fluids, and all of it needs to be managed and disposed of in a safe and responsible manner. Disposal of medical waste is regulated by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation to ensure safe and efficient management of this potentially hazardous material. With the help of knowledgeable, experienced professionals, BioWaste Medical Waste Management, Tennessee medical facilities can ensure that their medical waste is disposed of in accordance with the regulations and guidelines set by the state. In this article, we’ll explore the regulations, processes, and methods of medical waste disposal in Tennessee.
In Tennessee “Medical Wastes” means the following solid wastes:
All healthcare workers should know and observe the best practices for medical waste collection, storage, transportation, and disposal. Know the laws, classify and separate all waste, and use a clear color-coding system. Don’t overfill containers, and keep non-regulated waste separate to cut costs.
Disposal of medical waste is the final step in the waste management process. It is important to transport and dispose of this waste properly to prevent the risk of exposure from pathogens and other harmful substances. There are licensed medical waste transport companies in Tennessee, but only two of which provide services for the safe and efficient treatment and disposal of medical waste. There are only two companies in Tennessee that own and operate their own medical waste processing plant, BioWaste is one of those two.
Before choosing a medical waste disposal company, it is important to select a company that is licensed and insured, and employs trained, certified staff which operates its own medical waste processing plant. Choosing the right medical waste disposal company will help ensure that your medical waste is disposed of in a safe and responsible manner.

Tennessee has diverse terrain and landforms, and from east to west, contains a mix of cultural features characteristic of Appalachia, the Upland South, and the Deep South. The Blue Ridge Mountains along the eastern border reach some of the highest elevations in eastern North America, and the Cumberland Plateau contains many scenic valleys and waterfalls. The central part of the state is marked by cavernous bedrock and irregular rolling hills, and level, fertile plains define West Tennessee. The state is twice bisected by the Tennessee River, and the Mississippi River forms its western border. Its economy is dominated by the health care, music, finance, automotive, chemical, electronics, and tourism sectors, and cattle, soybeans, corn, poultry, and cotton are its primary agricultural products.[16] The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the nation’s most visited national park, is in eastern Tennessee.
