Stericycle UK Recensioni 

I needed to change the frequency of our Stericycle waste collections and Josh McBride was extremely polite and helpful in organising that change.

Polite, fast, helpful - perfect service from Martin.

Amazing service they arranged to pick up and drop off my new box and I didn't need to be home.

We've needed to reschedule our clinical waste collection a number of times since we signed up - Always accommodated with no fuss - Would recommend.

The minute after they sign you up they’re not interested. Requested my bin WEEKS ago and haven’t heard a thing since. Absolutely horrendous, money grabbing corporation. Avoid at all costs.

Update:

During the time I didn’t have a bin the guy showed up to collect said non existent bin. I was told I wouldn’t be charged a collection fee - guess what? They’ve billed me for £25.

Update: they’ve “showed up” two months early without any warning or attempt to notify me they were here. Now they’ll charge me again for a no collection due to no fault of my own.

I contacted Stericycle as the date on consignment note was wrong. Within a couple of days and some simple correspondence Abigail sent over the correct note. No drama, fuss free, just how I like it. Thanks

A gentleman by the name of Mark White helped me with my query today. He was very helpful, professional & courteous. Everything was sorted out within a few minutes. Thank you Mark.

great company. always helpfull and prompt

My sharps box was collected and exchanged for another one.

I was dealt with professionally and courtessially and a date for collection of my Sharp's Box was arranged the same day

I had a few questions about my billing today and Abigail was great at sorting things for me. She explained things very well and replied really quickly. Very happy with the experience today. Thank you

Ishika Metrohra was really helpful, very responsive in a very short timeframe, helping the service switch from one large client to another. Everything was smooth, manageable and with great communication

Mayank has been very helpful and has answered my queries promptly-many thanks

Replied promptly to my email and have promised a reasonable collection date

Got a response from them within hours of contatcing them. Very efficient!

We have had an extremely disappointing experience with Stericycle. Despite multiple complaints about missed and incorrectly scheduled medical waste collections, the issues persist.

We specifically requested collections on Mondays or Tuesdays, yet they continued to arrive on Fridays, causing major disruptions. On two occasions, an employee had to interrupt their scheduled day off and rush into the clinic due to an unplanned collection, resulting in unnecessary stress and additional costs.

Communication is poor, and scheduling errors are frequent, making it clear that the company does not honor its own contractual obligations. Despite switching to an ad-hoc service for flexibility, we are still not receiving the service we are paying for.

We have raised these concerns several times, yet there has been no real effort to resolve them. Given the ongoing failures, we are now considering terminating our contract and seeking an alternative provider.

I would not recommend this service to any business that relies on punctual and professional waste collection.

We have used the Shred-it part of Stericycle since February 2024.
Initially, it all started very well...
We found their collection and shredding service efficient and straightforward in the beginning.

Unfortunately, this experience was later completely overshadowed by a serious billing issue. They issued an invoice that was over three times higher than usual, due to what appears to be an administrative error on their end after a shredding collection late last year.

Despite sending numerous emails explaining the issue in detail, the responses have been extremely unhelpful and dismissive — it felt as though our concerns were not taken seriously at all.

Communicating with their customer service team has been frustrating. Replies are generic, often missing the point entirely, and they routinely close support threads after replying, forcing us to restart the conversation from scratch each time.

Overall, the customer service experience has been very poor, and sadly, we’ve decided to close our account and move to another shredding provider.

Great service, easy to deal with, Josh was great in understanding what I needed, quick to confirm, seemless! Thanks

Whole experience has been troublesome.
The initial set up took around 6 weeks, the person concerned left the company before contract property set up, I had to chase up.
Had threatening emails that my contract was being terminated due to non-payment, the above problem, direct debit payment had not been set up, once sorted multiple payments taken at once, defeats the object of spreading cost.
Delivery of 1st sharps bin did not reach me, delivery driver left on the clinic doorstep, before we were open. Someone took it, we are in a high street location... 2nd one reached me when I requested it to be left with a designated person only.
1st pick up failed, text message from driver late evening before pick up, due on a day I was away from clinic, no replacement offered. No schedule of pick up dates given.
Phoned customer services to request pick up, told it would cost me a further £35 over my contract as an extra pick up... WHAT? Representative refused to give her name for my complaint.
Raised a complaint.
8 days later received a response offering a pickup date. Thank you.
This service needs to be better, my initial impression is very poor.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we needed another clinical waste collection from one of our sites. Spoke to Abigail on the phone and a new collection was arranged for a few days later. No problem, no fuss, all done within 15 minutes. Thanks to Abigail for her great service.
