How to dispose off razor blades ?

Answer 1

dull the blade as much as possable, then wrap it inb cardboard, then tape it then throw it away

Answer 2

Straight blades should be put into a folded piece of cardboard (with the fold at the blade) and put a piece of tape around the entire thing then just put in the garbage.

Answer 3

I have an old peanut butter jar (plastic) into which I toss old single edge razor blade, utility knife blades, and mat cutting blades.  In about 40 years, it will be full and I'll toss it in the recycling or trash.

Answer 4

Use an old bandaid tin.  Close the top with tape when filled.

Answer 5

What used to be done was to have a medicine cabinet in the bathroom that had a slit in the back.  The cabinet was designed to fit into a hole in the wall the the razor blades would go down between the walls.

Answer 6

I guess you could collect them till you have sufficient quantity (maybe a few kilos) to trade to a scrap dealer :)

btw...i read somewhere that you could prolong (read atleast double) the life of your razor blades by drying them (use alcohol/hair dryer) after every use....
