18 Gallon Trace Chemo Collection Bin System
Description
18-gallon disposal systems are convenient and cost-effective solutions for the proper disposal of trace chemo waste.
Trace chemotherapy waste (meaning less than 3% of total volume) can include IV tubing, medicine bags, vials, or any part of the tubing and needle system that delivers the chemotherapy drug to a patient. However, personal protective equipment (PPE), towels, wipes, and pads may come in contact with chemotherapy drugs as well, and proper disposal is mandatory. All sharps must be placed in a separate sharps container first before placing into this system; loose sharps are not allowed in this system.
Who This Size Is Ideal For (Commercial Use)
Designed for facilities that generate trace chemotherapy waste during routine patient treatment and need compliant disposal without scheduled pickups or long-term service contracts.
Best suited for:
- Oncology and infusion clinics
- Hematology/oncology practices
- Hospital outpatient treatment centers
- Specialty pharmacies administering chemotherapy
- Home infusion providers & nursing agencies
- Veterinary oncology practices
- Research and clinical trial sites handling chemo medications
This system is intended for trace chemotherapy materials (less than 3% drug volume) such as IV tubing, medication bags, vials, and PPE that contacted chemotherapy drugs, while sharps must first be placed into an approved sharps container before going inside the bin.
Because chemotherapy treatment produces bulky waste, smaller containers fill quickly. This larger system lets facilities accumulate waste safely and return it only when full, reducing handling and storage disruptions.
This is not just a waste container.
Every PureWay system includes the container, return shipping, certified treatment, and eco-friendly destruction — all in one price.
Fill it → Seal it → Send it back. We handle the rest.
No drop-offs. No guessing local rules. No separate disposal fees.

How Much Fits Inside?
The 18-gallon trace chemo bin is designed for bulky treatment waste rather than just needles.
Typical capacity:
Hundreds of IV tubing sets
Dozens of medication bags
Hundreds of empty vials
Multiple sharps containers (must be sealed first)
Chemotherapy-contact items like wipes, pads, and PPE
In practical terms, it holds months of home infusion treatment materials in a single return.
Simple Sizing Rule
If your chemo supplies are filling a small container every few weeks — or you’re storing bags and tubing separately — this size dramatically reduces storage clutter and return frequency.
Manifest & Disposal
All PureWay Sharps chemo disposal systems come with a waste manifest (the four-part form used for tracking purposes for commercial healthcare facilities) that is needed to properly document and track your disposal of each system. All completed manifests can be found online through our tracking portal (connect.PureWay.com) once the system has been returned using the prepaid USPS shipping label included within 10 business days.
Shipping Details
Each system comes with a prepaid return USPS shipping label. Instructions are provided that detail how to properly seal and ship your system using the contents included. All PureWay Sharps Disposal systems have everything you need to safely close and ship to an authorized disposal site.
