The Nashoba Associated Boards of Health, in conjunction with the Shirley Board of Health, has established the following program for disposal of sharps (syringes).
Sharps containers are available at the Board of Health office for $5.00 each (check made payable to Nashoba Associated Boards of Health)
Once the container is full it can be brought to the Nashoba Associated Boards of Health building in Ayer, 30 Central Ave., or the Nashoba Nursing Service in Shirley, 2 Shaker Road., Suite D225, Monday – Friday, 9:00 am – 4:00 pm.
When dropping off the full container, a new container may be purchased.
Sharps can only be accepted in approved containers; persons who bring loose sharps or sharps in unapproved containers (i.e., detergent bottle or coffee can) will need to purchase the appropriate container for disposal and place the sharps in that container before they can be accepted.
