Better Manage Medical Waste Without Disrupting Care.
Medical waste management is not the first priority of a hospital, nor should it be.
When left unchecked, poor waste management leads to excessive costs and compliance risk.
Hospitals who are committed to sustainability are reducing costs and risk while achieving waste diversion goals.
If your hospital is unsure about waste costs, risks, or diversion...then let's take a look together.

Hidden Waste = Hidden Costs + Compliance Risks.
Do you know how much your spending and how much your throwing away?
Don't rely on your haulers to provide accurate diversion and cost reports. Most aren't incentivized to help you reduce waste and costs, and there are many waste vendors at a hospital who report and bill in different ways. If you're paying your monthly waste invoice without checking it, your subject to billing mistakes and price increases.
The first step to taking control of your waste is by accurately tracking it yourself.
Armed with your waste reports you can ensure your invoices are accurate and target high impact waste streams through initiatives that improve diversion, reduce compliance risk, and minimize costs.
Do you have a waste policy and training that is reviewed annually?
Staff turnover and poor training causes costly sorting mistakes. Don't overpay on your waste invoice because of poor separation.
Regulators are increasing inspections of medical waste management. Don't put your site at risk because of poor training and oversight.
Red bag waste and pharmaceutical waste can be 10x more expensive than regular trash. Hospitals who work with Reduction In Motion only dispose of 7% of their total waste in red bags, the industry best practice.

Hospitals That Get Waste Right See Real Results.
CASE 1: EFFICIENT HAULING REDUCES COSTS
In 2025, our team helped a health system prioritize hauling efficiency in their new waste hauling contract. Monthly reports and new technology are used to monitor equipment fullness and adjust scheduling to maximize service. The system is now on track to save $140,000 and reduce 30 metric tons of carbon emissions annually from their previous hauling contract.
Case 2: Composting reduces emissions
Our team is helping a health system send food waste to local composting facilities. The system is currently composting over 30,000 pounds of food waste each month and is on track to compost over 50,000 pounds a month by the end of 2026. The program supports the local community, reduces carbon emissions, and decreases waste sent to landfill. The system's diversion has increased by 5% while reducing carbon emissions by 85 metric tons annually and supporting several local composting businesses.
Case 3: Reducing waste sent to landfill and incineration
Our team is helping multiple health systems track the disposal site where haulers take each of the hauls from their site. This information is not provided on invoices and requires additional work with haulers, but this information is vital for health systems who are committed to ensuring their recycling is actually being recycled and their trash is sent to landfill or incinerator based on their preference.
