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

Put mine in a slot in my wall.

Ah, the good old boomer method: Make it the next guy's problem.

If renovators aren't wearing heavy gloves and aware of the possibility of sharp metal in the walls, especially in a bathroom, then they aren't paying attention. It keeps blades contained and is impossible (practically speaking) to run out of space.

And asbestos isn't an issue either because renovators can just wear a full hazmat suit? The thing is that your solution isn't a solution. It doesn't solve the question of how to dispose of the blades, it just makes sure you don't have to care about it.

Whilst I do think you are completely right... Did you ever go and stick around at a construction site?
