A container, for disposal of unsafe waste such as so-called “sharps” waste or other contaminated surgical, medical, or other materials, is in the form of a receptacle with an inlet for waste. In one embodiment, the inlet has gripper fingers so that a used needle can be pulled off a syringe, to fall into the receptacle, after insertion of the needle through the gripper fingers and then withdrawing the syringe away from the fingers. A base is provided for attaching the receptacle to a surface. The receptacle is interconnected with the base through a channel on the base, and a projecting part on the receptacle. The part can slide along the channel in one direction for interconnection of the receptacle and the base. A retention device is provided to prevent sliding in the opposite longitudinal direction e.g. when the syringe is withdrawn in such direction away from the fingers.
