Good, I have several yellow containers full of needles, but I don't know where to look at what clean points, pharmacies or health centers they accept this.Is there any way to know?Removing go face -to -face and ask, of course.

Thank you so much!

Clean points and pharmacies sure not.

Health centers, I don't know.In mine they told me to put them in a boat and when it would be filled, threw it well closed at normal trash.

They have never given me containers.Ask in your health center, that if you give them, the same picks them up.

I suppose it depends on each autonomous community.In Catalonia there are more and more green points (deixalleries) that collect them and process them properly.

In this link he explains how to save them and what points can you take them: Link

I keep them in a 1.5L plastic bottle and when it is full I carry it and take it without problem.In my town, also if you take 15 things a year to the green point (which cannot be recycled in normal containers) the garbage collection tax bonuses you 20%, so the issue goes well.
