How do you handle radioactive waste from a teaching lab?

Our undergraduate radiochemistry practicals generate small but steady amounts of mixed waste, and the disposal paperwork has grown faster than the experiments.

I am curious how other departments balance teaching needs against the cost and effort of waste handling.

What does your lab do with teaching-derived radioactive waste, and have you found ways to reduce it at the source?
