On Allears website they sugest an empty coke bottle. I don't know how effective this would be though.

I was prescribed a tiny gadget that clips the needles off the pens and stores them. When it is full you get another. And then I just bring ths carcasses home with me.

We usually take a sharps bin with us and then bring it home. It would be good to be able to dispose of it before we come home.

can you not get one from where his insulin comes from?
I'm on daily injections as I have MS I've been given a little sharps box especially for taking on holiday with me but the injections are delivered straight to me, I dont have to order scripts or anything, the sharps box holds about 14 in it,

does your DH get a prescription for the insulin, or is it delivered direct to your DH? If he gets scripts ask if a mini sharps box can be put on the same prescription at same time, if its delivered directly phone the company and ask for a mini sharps box, if they are not delivered direct ask at your chemist if they do provide the mini sharps box.

hope you get sorted out

Ring your District Nurses at your local practice and ask if they are able to supply a portable sharps bin for you to take abroad. I order them in for our DN's and they would be the perfect size for what you are after
