We will be accepting unused and expired prescription drugs which will be turned into the DEA for destruction. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked. *Please note, we cannot accept liquids, inhalers, or needles.*
Visit SafeNeedleDisposal.org and enter your zip code for more information about sharps disposal in your area.
