You can get a free one here.https://www.enlivenservices.com/ra/ongoingsupport/forms/sharps-container.jsp
I have received about 5 of them and they FedEx right to your door. I have replied no to both questions and they still send them.

Pros:

I feel this is a more proper way to dispose of Sharps.

Cons:

None that I know of.

While at work I have ample access to sharps containers (I am a nurse), but while at home I usually just use a 2 litre soda bottle. Once a month I will tape the lid onto the top of the bottle and put it to the curb.

Pros:

My dogs can't chew the top of the 2 litre bottle off like they have done to the Sharps Container I tried to use once.

Cons:

I still always worry that the lid to the 2 litre bottle will come off.

I use the bleach bottle which works great. So far.

Pros:

It does not go through the bottle and it is tough and can handle the storing of needles and blood strips and lancets.

Cons:

They make them small now so it can only hold but so much.

This is a good product when you have small children around. The way the Shaarps Container closes and stays closed is Ideal for little children.

Pros:

It's hard to get the things out from the Sharps container.

Cons:

I was told by my Nurse Educator that using an empty Fabric Softener
