Prescription Drug Drop-off Box

A locked prescription drug drop-off box is available in the lobby entrance to the city building located at 30 Park Avenue. This drop box offers a way for residents to conveniently dispose of unwanted or expired prescription drugs and is accessible to the public 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The items accepted for safe disposal include: prescription medications, medication patches, over-the-counter-medications, vitamins, medication samples, and unwanted medications for pets. Items that cannot be accepted include: liquids of any kind, gels, ointments, needles, inhalers, aerosol cans, and medications from businesses or clinics.

Citizens should package their unwanted medications in clear plastic baggies. Pill containers or boxes should be discarded with regular trash. All items collected from the drop box will be processed for destruction according to state and federal law.

This program is not designed for commercial use. Businesses should dispose of medications according to state and federal guidelines.
