Hi Marija ,
At Western our medical waste wheelie bins are lined. Our waste provider supplies all the yellow bins lined ready for use. We do not tie them off, our waste provider on collection of the bins does this.

Subject: [ACIPC_Infexion_Connexion] Waste and MBG bib liners

Hi all,

I am asking a question. AS3816 attached for reference.
Are your clinical waste bins or medical waste bins (240 liters yellow mobile garbage bins) and cytotoxic bins lined with a bin liner?
If so what type of bin liner is used, who supplies them and who is responsible for tying off the bag when it 2/3 full?
Any help would be appreciated.

Kind Regards
