There are medical waste/sharps containers that you can get for home use. Some vendors will pick these up regularly, others are designed to be safely disposed of in regular trash.

Do you to have a garbage disposal with a dish washer?

You can have one or both. If you have a disposal, the dishwasher usually empties into it. This helps keep the disposal clean and any food particles from the dishwasher get chopped up. Any home can have a dishwasher, but if your home is on a septic system, a garbage disposal is distinctly discouraged.
