Medical Waste Disposal in San Antonio

Our largest operation since day one. The largest medical waste recycling operation in South Texas, built from the ground up.

San Antonio River Walk at night

San Antonio is where remedi started and where we run our largest operation. Our local presence gives us direct oversight of every route, every facility, and every compliance process in the region. For healthcare providers across the San Antonio metro, that means faster response times, tighter chain-of-custody controls, and a team that knows the local regulatory landscape firsthand.

The South Texas Medical Center district alone concentrates dozens of hospitals, specialty clinics, surgical centers, and research labs within a few square miles. Add the military medical corridor anchored by Brooke Army Medical Center and the facilities at Fort Sam Houston, and San Antonio becomes one of the densest healthcare markets in the state. remedi serves this entire ecosystem with a fully integrated model: our own fleet, our own employees, and our own processing facilities.

As the first company in Texas permitted to recycle regulated medical waste, we built our operation here specifically because San Antonio demanded it. The volume, the diversity of generators, and the regulatory complexity of serving both civilian and military medical facilities required a purpose-built infrastructure. That infrastructure now supports guaranteed minimum 10% savings compared to incumbent regulated medical waste contracts.

Services for San Antonio Healthcare Providers

Pickup, treatment, recycling, and compliance documentation from a single local provider.

Regulated Medical Waste Pickup

Scheduled and on-call collection from hospitals, clinics, surgery centers, dental offices, veterinary practices, and long-term care facilities throughout Bexar County and the surrounding Hill Country. Every pickup includes full chain-of-custody documentation from the moment waste leaves your facility through final processing.

Sharps and Pharmaceutical Waste

Compliant disposal of sharps containers, expired medications, and controlled substances for San Antonio's dense network of outpatient clinics, pharmacies, and specialty practices. We also offer mail-back sharps kits for smaller generators who need a simple, compliant solution without scheduled service.

Our sterilization, shredding, and downstream recycling integration diverts regulated medical waste from landfills and incineration, giving your sustainability team documented, auditable results for ESG reporting.
