Woodhaven VeterinarV Clinic Waste Disposal Policy
In an effort to keep pharmaceutical and pet waste out of the community waterways, all
personnel are required to use the following guidelines:
Under no circumstances shall unused medications be flushed down a drain.
1. When appropriate, unused or expired drugs will be returned to the vendor purchased
from or will be donated to a charity clinic able to use them.
2. Liquids and pills that are unable to be returned or donated will be mixed with kitty litter,
placed in a plastic bag and placed in another plastic bag to be disposed of in our trash.
All solid pet waste will be collected in plastic bags from our grounds, patient's cages and
runs and placed in another plastic bag to be disposed of in our trash.
