Why BioMed

Medical waste service without the giant

Greer Enterprises has removed bio-hazard waste for industrial customers since 2001. In 2010 we looked at what medical offices were getting from the national medical waste companies and saw a lack of trust, credibility and customer service.

So Greer built a division for physicians, clinics, dentists, funeral homes, tattoo studios and the many other offices that generate medical waste. It is called BioMed Solutions now. The team is the same.

We left a large waste disposal company for Greer almost three years ago and have never once regretted our decision.

Two ways to dispose

Pickup or mail-back

It comes down to how much you make. Steady volume suits a truck on a schedule. An office that fills a few containers a month can skip the truck and mail them back.

Scheduled pickup

For clinics, practices and facilities with steady volume

  • Containers and bags supplied for each waste stream
  • Routine or flexible pickups, adjusted when your volume changes
  • Collected by trained, experienced personnel
  • Waste manifest and proof of legal destruction every time
  • Local across Alabama, South Mississippi, Southeast Louisiana and the Florida Panhandle, from our Mobile, AL and Pensacola, FL offices

Mail-back

For small quantity generators, 0 to 50 lbs a month

  • Systems from 1 quart to 28 gallons
  • Prepaid return box and a pre-filled manifest
  • Email tracking from pickup to destruction
  • Electronic certificate of disposal
  • No contracts, no minimums, no fuel surcharges

How pickup works

From the first call to the certificate

  1. BioMed technician going over service details with a clinic staff member at the front desk

    Tell us what you generate

    Call Mobile or Pensacola, or send the form. We ask what kinds of waste you make and roughly how much.

  2. Technician fitting a new wall-mounted sharps container in a clinic room

    We bring the containers

    The right containers and red bags for each waste stream, so nothing goes in the wrong bin.

  3. Technician sorting sealed containers on a cart in a clinic hallway

    Collected on your schedule

    Routine or flexible pickups by trained personnel. If you need us more or less often, we change the schedule.

  4. Technician and clinic manager reviewing the pickup record on a tablet

    Paperwork you can file

    A waste manifest for the pickup and proof that the waste was legally destroyed. Keep it for your records and your inspector.

Who we work with

The offices we serve

These are the offices BioMed was set up for in 2010. Each makes a different mix of waste, so the containers change from one to the next. The manifest and the proof of destruction do not.

We left a large waste disposal company for Greer almost three years ago and have never once regretted our decision. The prices are very reasonable, the employees are friendly and we’ve never had a single problem with pick-ups. Greer has always been quick to adjust our pick-up schedule based on our needs and Dama is a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Greer to any medical practice looking for a medical waste management company.

What counts as medical waste?

Any solid or liquid waste that contains infectious or potentially infectious material. In practice: needles and syringes, scalpels, blades and forceps, tubing and catheters, bed pans, blood-soaked clothing and linens, and expired or unused pharmaceuticals. The EPA and each state set the rules for how it is handled, packaged, transported and destroyed.

Where does BioMed pick up?

Local pickup covers Alabama, South Mississippi, Southeast Louisiana and the Florida Panhandle, run from offices in Mobile, AL and Pensacola, FL. The mail-back program ships to all 50 states.

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

No. BioMed does not use long-term contracts or hidden fees, and the mail-back program has no minimum purchase and no fuel surcharges.

What paperwork do I get after a pickup?

A waste manifest and proof of legal waste destruction. Mail-back shipments come with a pre-filled manifest, live email tracking from pickup to destruction, and an electronic certificate of disposal.

Is mail-back right for my office?

It is built for small quantity generators making 0 to 50 lbs of waste a month, such as smaller practices and dental offices. Systems run from 1 quart to 28 gallons. When the container is full, you seal it in the prepaid return box and hand it to the carrier.

Can you take pharmaceutical waste?

Yes. BioMed handles expired and unused pharmaceuticals, including EPA hazardous pharmaceutical waste, and can help with characterization, inventory, containers, compliance audits and on-site management.

Is BioMed part of Greer Enterprises?

Yes. BioMed Solutions is the medical waste division of Greer Enterprises, LLC. Greer has handled bio-hazard removal and medical waste for industrial customers since 2001 and opened the service to medical practices in 2010. The team did not change with the name.
