Did you know that a great many of waste disposal companies don’t actually dispose your waste? They pick up your waste and then drive it to a facility where they pay somebody else to sanitize and dispose of your waste. This obviously drives up prices but along with that it lowers the quality of service as a whole. Healthcare Waste Management operates our own waste disposal plants, we hire our own drivers, we own the trucks, we have complete control of your waste from pickup to destruction. This saves tremendous amounts of money which we then pass down to you as savings on your waste pickup.
Des Moines has a long history dating back to 1843. Settlers would come here and leave. A former teacher who came for the winter of 1850 was once quoted as saying, it is one of the strangest looking cities I ever saw, with the people as varied as the buildings, housing people from nearly every state. Because Des Moines sits on the Des Moines and Raccoon Rivers it has been nearly destroyed more than once. In 1851 much of the town was destroyed, including crops, housing and fences that were swept away by the raging waters. In 1993 and again in 2008 river flooding caused damage to the area. During the great flood of 1993 The Des Moines Water Works was submerged by flood waters which left some 250,000 without running water for 12 days and without drinking water for 20 days.
Des Moines is serviced by many wonderful hospitals such as Broadlawns medical center and the MercyOne medical center. These hospitals are great, but they may not have many options for people who are without insurance. That’s where Christ the King Free Clinic located on SW 9th Street comes in. Serviced by doctors donating their time for the clinic they can provide treatment for ailments such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and other chronic health conditions along with providing physicals and exams for children. They are generally open from 7AM to 9PM and you do not need an appointment.
As the name suggest we are a complete management team of your healthcare medical, biohazard, sharps and other wastes that is regulated. From pickup to destruction, we are the only company that handles your waste
In November 2005, Des Moines voters approved a measure that allowed the city to annex parcels of land in the northeast, southeast, and southern corners of Des Moines without agreement by local residents, particularly areas bordering the Iowa Highway 5/U.S. 65 bypass. The annexations became official on June 26, 2009, as 5,174 acres and around 868 new residents were added to the city of Des Moines. An additional 759 acres were voluntarily annexed to the city over that same period.

Des Moines is the capital and the most populous city in the U.S. state of Iowa. It is also the county seat of Polk County. A small part of the city extends into Warren County. It was incorporated on September 22, 1851, as Fort Des Moines, which was shortened to “Des Moines” in 1857. It is located on, and named after, the Des Moines River, which likely was adapted from the early French name, Rivière des Moines, meaning “River of the Monks”.
