Why is this couch all cut up?
When porous or upholstered furniture is affected by biohazard contamination, it cannot simply be loaded up and taken to the landfill. The contaminated fabric, padding, and other porous materials must first be carefully removed and packaged for proper medical waste disposal.
Any remaining hard, nonporous surfaces are then thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and inspected. Only after we verify that no contamination remains can the rest of the furniture be safely disposed of at a landfill.
Joe’s AZ BIO is licensed to transport medical waste, allowing our team to securely move the packaged biohazard contamination to our warehouse, where it is collected by an authorized medical waste company for proper disposal.
It’s not just about removing an item. It’s about making sure every part of the disposal process is handled safely and correctly.
