The red collection unit previously located in the lobby of the Police Department is no longer available.  For information on where and how to dispose of unused medication, follow the U. S. Food and Drug Administration’s guidelines.

The U. S. Drug Enforcement Administration partners with area businesses nationwide to offer a biannual Prescription Drug Take-Back Day.  These opportunities are usually available in both the Spring and Fall.  The next DEA Drug Take Back Day is Saturday, April 25 from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.   Learn more information from the DEA, or use this search utility to identify a controlled substance public disposal location.
