Due to the risk of injury and the spreading of disease it is important to safely store and dispose of your used razor blades. We provide an all-metal razor bank to safely store your used double edge razor blades. You can separate the two piece container and transfer the blades into another container for safe disposal by placing tape over the slot then turning the bank upside down and lifting off the base plate, or you can use masking tape to seal the slot then prevent accidental opening of the container by running the tape around the bank vertically so as to bind the bank housing to the base plate. Be liberal with the tape and use a marker to label the container with “Bio Hazard” and/or “Used Razor Blades”. Dispose with your trash or according to your local ordinances.
Used multi-blade cartridges such as Gillette’s Mach3 and Fusion should be returned to a slot in the cartridge tray. When all cartridges have been retired the entire tray should be wrapped in masking tape and disposed of with your trash. Individual cartridges with no tray to call home and shaving heads on disposable razors should be individually wrapped in tape and disposed with your trash or according to your local ordinances.
Keep your family, guests and waste management workers safe. Masking tape is an efficient and inexpensive solution to the problem of safe disposable of used razor blades. We provide an all-metal razor bank at no charge with the purchase of a double edge razor. Replacement razor banks are only $2 including HST. You can even make your own razor bank using other metal containers such as a can of broth. There is no solid matter to clog the slot you make to drain and rinse the can if you use broth. The appropriately sized slot will accept your used blades for safe storage (seal with tape then label as above prior to disposal).
