Abstract: A container of combustible material is provided for disposal, in an ecologically satisfactory manner, of septic bodies, such as a used sanitary napkin, tampon or bandage. The container comprises two parts, with at least one part providing an open, obstructed space for the reception of the septic body. One of the parts of the container has an adhesive body which completely encircles it. The adhesive body is initially protected by a removable cover. When the parts are assembled, so that both parts are in contact with the adhesive, the adhesive provides a continuous bonding of the parts of the container to hermetically seal the container. The adhesive is sufficiently strong to prevent manual separation of the parts. The container may be used to ship and store an aseptic body, prior to use, and then be used for the reception, sealing and disposal of the same or a similar body which has become septic.
