Drug Take Back Day
Too often, unused and expired medications find their way into the wrong hands. That’s dangerous and often tragic. Bringing unused and expired medications to a Drug Take Back Day collection site protects you, your family, and your community.
The next Drug Take Back Day is April 26, 2025.
How to participate
It’s easy to participate in Drug Take Back Day. Just stop by a collection site and drop your items into a bin. That’s it. No questions are asked. You can be in and out of a collection site in minutes.
