I'm male and sometimes use small incont pads. Is it acceptable to dispose of a wet pad in the sanitary bin in disabled toilets?

In my incontinent supply go bag I always carry enough plastic bags, mostly ziploc, to enable me to dispose of used products safely and appropriately.

As Patrick said I think it would be best to enclose a used pad in a plastic bag of some sort but if you don't have one handy I would still think it's OK to dispose of it without a bag.

Yes I would place it in a bag first. Only started using the pads and have not disposed of any at work. Do tend to take them home and dispose of them there.

zip lock bags in my book are a bit costly for this but if a person feels they still need to use a bag we use the wal mart bags put used diaper in and use handles to tie bag off with and duel purpose the wal mart bags we know we get loads of them each week or month we do are big time shopping depending on how we get paid the grey color to the said bags also hide what the bag has in it also just idea for yall and for thhe person that uses the zip lock bags I DID NOT POST THIS TO CUT YOU DOWN FOR THAT
