Project Needle Smart

Project Needle Smart serves as a community safe sharps collection program in support of alternative needle/syringe disposal throughout the Capital Region.

Project Needle Smart offers awareness on proper access and disposal of needles and syringes. You can help prevent injury, illness and pollution by learning about safe disposal of sharps.

If you have used or unwanted needles, or would like a free sharps container, please visit one of our drop-off kiosk locations. All kiosks are outside and have 24/7 access unless otherwise noted.
