If you’re a Massachusetts healthcare provider currently using Stericycle, you’re not alone in feeling frustrated. Stericycle is one of the most complained-about medical waste companies in the country — known for steep price increases, binding long-term contracts, and national call centers that make it nearly impossible to reach a real person who knows your account.
Massachusetts Medical Waste Collection is a local alternative built around the opposite approach: transparent pricing, flexible agreements, and a team based right here in Massachusetts.

Common Complaints from Stericycle Customers
We hear from former Stericycle customers regularly. The most common frustrations we hear include:
- Unexpected price increases — rates that rise sharply year over year, often with little notice
- Auto-renewing contracts — missing a cancellation window means being locked in for another full term
- Cancellation fees — leaving early triggers penalties buried in the original contract
- Missed pickups — and no local contact to call when service doesn’t show up
- Call center runaround — long hold times and agents who don’t know your account history
Experiencing a Missed Pickup? We Can Help Right Now
If Stericycle missed your scheduled pickup and you can’t get a response, don’t wait. Regulated medical waste — sharps, biohazardous materials, pharmaceutical waste — can’t sit indefinitely. You have compliance obligations, and we can help.
Call us at (617) 583-3455 and we’ll assess your situation and work to get an emergency pickup scheduled as quickly as possible.
How We’re Different
- Local and responsive — when you call, a real Massachusetts-based person answers who knows your account
- Transparent pricing — no surprise fee increases, no confusing billing
- No long-term contracts required — flexible service agreements that work for your practice
- Fully licensed and compliant — meeting all Massachusetts DEP and DOT requirements
- Reliable scheduling — consistent pickup windows you can count on
- Same-day quotes — reach out in the morning and have a plan by afternoon
Switching Is Easier Than You Think
Many healthcare providers put off switching because they assume it’s complicated. In practice, transitioning away from Stericycle is straightforward. We handle the compliance documentation, help you understand your current contract terms, and make sure your new service is in place before your Stericycle contract lapses — so there’s no gap in coverage.
