I just ordered a slick device on Amazon. It is called an Amonior sharps container. It clips the needle of an insulin syringe and stores the needle. Its tiny and holds the same sharps as 30 1 qt sharps containers. I guess you can just toss the needle-less syringe after clipping. Now I can free up a shelve in the kitchen used for sharps containers.

Not sure the cost on Amazon, but injectionshop.com (forum sponsor) sells them. Needle clippers sharps containers are a game changer for sure.

Is it this?
I’m actually really interested in this because, as you said, it would be a game changer.

I thought about getting one but it felt like I would be advertising my addiction to the trash collectors if a bag split open.
Instead I recap all needles and toss them into a brown paper sandwich bag inside another brown paper sandwich bag along with alcohol wipes, empty pen cartridges, used vials, filters and nitrile gloves then when it’s about 1/2 full I wrap it in gaffers tape then one short piece of red biohazard tape, stuff it into an almond milk carton and tape that up and write HIV on the outside with a Sharpie and wrap it in a paper grocery bag from Trader Joe’s with a scoop of cat litter. It makes me feel like I’m back in San Francisco. 🤣

I think I saw a few of those in the gutter next to human feces in the tenderloin the last time I visited...

Yes Id like one of those..
I use needle nose bird scissors like pliers to bend the pen needle into a loop and then flatten it. I just loop the back of pen needle. I recap, wrap in my wipe foil packet and toss in the trash. Zero poke risk. For syringes the clip would be super useful.

The one from Injectionshop is much more compact than the one yobculture linked to. I like that it just stores the snipped-off needles. I was replacing the caps on the syringes when done (and will continue to do so), but now there's no worry of any mishaps if the cap comes loose.

1. What were you doing in the Tenderloin? 😳 Like all major cities, there are always bad areas. This is an area to avoid.
2. To be fair, crime in SF has dropped by 26% in 2025. The homicide rate in SF is the lowest since the 1950s, so things are getting better with the new mayor.
3. It’s funny seeing a bunch of cats chatting about syringe clippers. 😸
4. Inspired by this post, I’m going to pull the trigger and get this one. I’ll just keep the neutered syringes in a coffee can and duct tape it shut when I toss it.

I have the clipper from injection shop and it is awesome! I clip the needle from the syringe, recap the syringe and put the capped syringe in a Gatorade bottle.
