The blade disposal unit is formed with a slot sized to receive a razor blade and with a vertical channel and horizontal grooves which allow the blade disposal unit to be readily secured to a variety of different objects using ties. The blade disposal unit is also ergonomically shaped with curved corner portions which also make it safer. The blade disposal unit is formed with visible indicia, such as instructions for using the apparatus and/or safety information, which cannot readily be removed, obliterated or tampered with. For example, the visible indicia are formed from raised and/or sunken portions of the blade disposal unit. The holder unit includes a main compartment sized to receive the blade disposal unit. The holder unit is formed such that the visible indicia are exposed (i.e., visible) when the blade disposal unit is inserted into the holder unit. The holder unit also includes a blade compartment sized to receive a box a razor blades.
