At home, we've used (at hospital advice) an empty laundry detergent container, well marked "SHARPS - DO NOT RECYCLE." In Minnesota, anyway, it's legal to then put the closed container into the garbage. It's possible that your local hospital would be willing to let you dispose of them there, too.

Since they are not pieces with any story or local connection I am trying to figure out how to safely dispose of them and was wondering if anyone has run into this in the past and what their course of action was.
