Here at Locus Services, we are experts at sweeping areas for sharps. Our team of specialists carry out drug related clean-ups to the highest standard, creating a safe and decontaminated area upon completion. We understand that the cleanliness of your commercial premises is highly important to the smooth running of your business, so as well as our emergency cleaning services, we also offer drugs and sharps removals as part of our highly specialised range of cleaning services. 

The safe removal of these objects is vital and proper disposal by a licensed and trained operative is highly recommended, as coming into contact with these objects can pose huge health risks for both you and the general public. As a business, we are registered with the Environment Agency and are licensed waste carriers. Duty of care waste documentation is supplied with every job we undertake. 

On arrival, at your premises, we will carry out a full site survey to assess the situation and cleanup at hand. Our team is fully trained, licensed, insured and experienced in this work and will carry out a full sweep of the area. Due to the nature of this work, we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across the UK.

General waste removal and disposal 

As part of our service, we offer a full consultation to assess your individual business needs. Whether this is a regular collection or an on-demand service, we will collect non-recyclable materials, as well as managing recyclables in order to help your business comply with waste management legislation. 

Hazardous waste

We are able to manage hazardous waste (including needles, sharps removals, drug paraphernalia and fluids) on an on-going or one off basis. Here at Locus Services, we also offer an emergency bio-hazardous waste clean up service. 

Bad tenant & hoarder house clearances

If you let out or manage a property that has been occupied by hoarders or bad tenants, a professional service may be required. The environment may be unsafe, unsanitary or hazardous, so clearance and decontamination will be a priority. We operate with complete discretion and sensitivity, as we are aware that this can be an unpleasant process. 

Needles and sharps removals

Discarded needles and sharps need removing and disposing of as soon as possible due to the health risks they pose and, as soon as you notice any needles or sharps on your premises, you need to report them immediately as they should not be disposed of with any household or commercial waste. We will carry out full needle sweeps of your premises and then dispose of them correctly, leaving you with duty of care waste documentation for your peace of mind.

Testimonials

"I contacted Locus Services regarding a large commercial unit clean. Locus met with me promptly onsite to assess the job, they were professional and provided a full quotation for the job the next day. They had all necessary documentation and accreditations needed to carry out work for us and were able to provide this to me very quickly. The job needed to be completed within two days. Locus understood the importance and completed the clean on schedule and to a very high standard. It was a pleasure working with Locus and their team"
