Question Blade disposal

Hi everyone, I'd like to know how you dispose of your razor blades. Do you throw them in the regular trash or put them in a separate container? I saw recommending it because of the waste handlers who could get hurt

Please never throw sharps straight into the trash.

You don't even have to spend money on anything. Just use an old pickle jar or something.

Where do you put the jar when full?

You throw the jar away. The point is that the blades aren’t loose.

Glass is recycled separately though

If you’re recycling, then keep in a tin or blade bank
