Safe Needle Disposal

Used needles can pose a serious public safety and health hazard. If you find a used needle in the community, there are steps you can take to safely dispose of them.

For assistance with needle pickup, please contact:

Street Project 
306-766-7799
Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Street Project is a part of the Saskatchewan Health Authority, providing city-wide needle pickup. If you are directed to voicemail, please leave the location of the needle(s) and/or your phone number and pickup will be scheduled and/or a call back will be provided.

OR

AIDS Programs South Saskatchewan (APSS)
306- 924-8420
Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

APSS provides city-wide, needle pickup.

Outside of Street Project and APSS hours and on weekends, please contact Service Regina at 306-777-7000 and follow the touch-tone instructions. Support will be provided by the Fire & Protective Services Department.

Disposing of Needles in a Safe Manner

Using heavy gloves and a pair of tongs or pliers, please dispose of any needle(s) in an empty, non-breakable, hard-sided container, with a lid that needles cannot poke through (ie. pop bottle or small coffee tin). Please use the tongs to safely pick up the needle(s), place them in the container and fasten the lid. Containers may be taken to a needle drop off box at:

Street Project Needle Disposal Drop Boxes

  • North Central: Alley behind 1100 Cameron Street and Garnet Street (off of 5th Avenue)
  • Downtown Core: Alley by Core Community Park – 1800 block, Montreal Street

Please note: Private Property needle pickup is at the discretion of the property owner. The City of Regina does not provide needle pickups on private property.
