Santa Rosa County provides a free and safe solution for residents who generate sharps waste. Those with home-generated sharps waste are asked not to place the items in their household garbage or recycle containers in order to help protect waste handlers, the public and the environment. Instead, residents are asked to take sharps waste in a store-bought sharps approved container with a secured lid to the Household Hazardous Waste Center located at the entrance of the central landfill, 6337 Da Lisa Road in Milton. Drop-off hours are Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
