My GP has always refused to take sharps bins and seemed really confused when I asked how to get rid of them (and distressed- surely I can’t be the first to have asked them…?). They told me to ring the council, who said that it wasn’t their job- they only take the stuff from the hospitals and GPs! Problem was eventually solved by a nice man in the Asda pharmacy who lets me use his big sharps bin. So now he can have all the money from getting my massive prescriptions!
