Where do you dispose of your pins???
ad
Ok so I am starting my first cycle the first week of Jan. I have been working on getting my BF% down. Started at about 16% currently at 13% hope to be below 12% or better for Jan.
Anyway I have done lots of research, but really have not come across many post about the subject of disposing of pins. So I figured I would ask. How do you personally dispose of your pins. This should be a subject that is not taking lightly because it could lead to real problems for anyone who comes across a load of used pins and is unaware that they are there. Just looking for ideas because I am not sure of the best way to get rid of mine????

xub3rn00dlexI do what a lot of guys here mentioned. I do the protein jug trick. I fill it with syringes, spray some insulating foam in there to fill it (EZ stuff or whatever it's called) and then I tape the lid shut and label it home sharps. I put it in the garbage. All my needles are put in the original caps that they come with.
Edit: check your state/city policies. I know I can drop them off at pharmacies, nursing homes, emergency centers etc. I actually dropped them off at a nursing home and they offered me clean pins before, which I thought was cool. You're always gonna have a few ass holes judging you, but my experiences trading them in have been relatively good.
AnonSharps container and when full throw them in a box or grocery bag or whatever then toss them in the dumpster. As Ace said, "I just throw mine in the garbage. I'm really hardcore though."
Here in the UK we have the needle exchange program.
I go in once every 6 months, pick up needles/barrels/wipes/disposal boxes then drop off my full up disposal boxes, give the heroin addicts a cheeky bicep flex as I walk out the door and crack on with my day.
My empty protein jug, a 5 lb protein jug holds a lot of pins. Then I tape the lid tight, double bag it and chuck it in with the rest of the trash..
i put all my pins in a water bottle and spray some great stuff ( the foam that expands at home depot for cracks and what not) and itll be a sealed foam bottle so no one will get pricked by a pin....and the plastics i just toss them in a recycling bin...never had a problem
I throw mine in my neighbor's yard all winter. That way when spring rolls around he'll think twice about being the first to mow, just to make my yard look like shit.
(I'll put em in empty detergent bottle and toss it in the trash when full.)
I literally spit my rice and chicken all over my tv laughing at this. Holy shit man...That's the funniest shit I've heard all month
Hahaha, I wish it were true. Fucker does it to me every year lol
Baby wipes container.
Always throw all my shit away in an empty bleach or laundry detergent bottle because they're hard plastic. I just let it accumulate throughout the month and when it gets full just close it shut and trash it.
LMAO....all very entertaining replies as I expected. Some good ideas too which I also expected. Eroids never disappoints. Thank to all who replied. Think I am gonna go with the empty protein jug suggestion and duct tape it shut when I trash it.
I collect them
StevebThose are nails
Whaa?? ... it just looks like that after I use the ball-peen hammer on them.
That's just unsanitary.
One of them dar Cell tech jugs.
A sharps container or you can make your own, by using a similar receptacle (thicker plastic). Some solid examples below.
As far as fire goes, I supposed it depends on where you live. If I lighted a fire in my yard, the fire department would be there in minutes.
I get small sharps containers at the pharmacy for 3-4 bucks. Than seal them and hide the in the trash. It's completely safe and legal where I live. It's worth asking for the pharmacy.
I like to shove three or four into an empty pop can or energy drink can, then I fold the edges down and toss them in to the trash. this way no one gets pricked and no one is the wiser.
Up here we have a deposit on cans,lol I can just picture the bottle pickers now...
AnonWait.......You cant re use pins? The guy that lives in the dumpster near my house who i get my needles from does it all the time!
I throw slin pins and needles in a sharps container. The syringe without needle I just toss in the trash.
I have a wood stove/boiler that gets crazy hot. I incinerate all my old pins and vials.
Good ideas below....i have used an Ensure bottle, milk jug (too thin, really), beer bottle (it will go in), while breaking the needle off with the cap. I burned some vials and syringe once. I like the trash better.
I leave all my needles exposed after using them and toss them in the can. Hoping some unsuspecting asshole digs in my trash and gets stuck by one.
I knew those were from you....ouch....lol!!
I use a laundry detergent bottle. When it's full I throw it a random dumpster.
Google: disposing of syringes and needles in your state
In my state syringes and needles can be disposed of in the garbage if the they are placed in a puncture resistant container such as a Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle (e.g. 2 liter soda, Clorox, or radiator fluid bottle) with a tight fitting or taped lid and labeled "SHARPS, DO NOT RECYCLE."
StevebIn the trash can at a gas station while I am filling up.
so you drive with them in your car? fuck that!
StevebThe gas station is near my house on the way to work. If I did get pulled over with a bunch of used needles I know it will give them probable cause to search my car but they can't charge me with anything.
you can be charged with possession of drug paraphenalia
I use an empty 5lb thing of protein. It always works out perfect to when the one I'm using for my shakes gets empty the one for my pins is full. I then duck tape the top closed and toss it in my dumpster.
That is exactly what i do! Step by step
Don't forget about fire! I have a fire outside at least once a week. It gives me a chance to get rid of just about everything i don't want to fall into the wrong hands
Buy a sharps container. Drop it off at the pharmacy when it's full. No questions asked they dispose of it for you
Ok so they sell disposal containers but most are meant for slin pins or like .8ml prefilled syringes so like they hold 3 months or 90 pins at one a day...but 3mls they hold like 30 Max and they cost like $5-10 each so a cycle may cost $30 to dispose of using the containers...so I recomend milk jugs or better yet thick juice containers with a lid like juicy juice containers
Ace VenturaI just throw mine in the garbage. I'm really hardcore though. If you wanna do it right, something like an empty laundry detergent jug would work really nice.
lol. really hardcore though.
