Is it really okay for the Mail Carrier to pickup and transport bio–hazardous medical waste?
Yes. But only if the mailback system you use is approved by the Postal Service. A U.S. Postal Service permit number is printed on the front of every Sharps Disposal by Mail System return shipping box. This number is your assurance that the container and box may be mailed. Sharps Compliance, Inc. and the U.S. Postal Service have partnered to provide this service since 1994 and can assure customers that all the Sharps Disposal by Mail Systems meet or exceed mailing requirements.
