Sharps bins

Do you put the pin AND the barrel in them or just the pins ?

i have been putting the lot in mainly due too my own privacy but the wife reckons l should only put the pins in and bin the barrels.

Just the pins mate, save the space for what it's mean't for and ditch the plastic.

The only reason l could give is it may put the sh*ts up the bin men.

Wrap it in a piece of kitchen towel and put it in a freezer bag, they will never even know.

I put pins only in. I put the barrell into a nappy sack with the wipes and all the other rubbish needle wrappers ect for this very reason.
