Uh no, there are 3 different containers that we use at OMA one for knives and other prohibited items, one for lighters and the big blue trash can for the liquids. Like I said in an earlier post we've been threatened with our job if we even take a bottle of water. The box with the knives are emptied once a week and only one person has the key and then the items go into a storage room at the main office and then the items are picked up once a month by gov't contracted salvage company.
