Gather your unused, expired, and unwanted medications for safe disposal. The City of Hilliard Division of Police is joining other communities for the Drug Enforcement Agency’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, April 26, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Residents can use a simple drive-thru service at the police department, located at 5171 Northwest Parkway, to drop off their unwanted or expired medications in pill form.
No needles, sharps, asthma inhalers, and illicit drugs will be accepted. The disposal service is free and anonymous for consumers, with no questions asked.
Residents are asked to black out any personal information — including names and address — marked on prescription bottles before bringing in the items.
New this year: HPD will partner with SWACO to recycle prescription bottles. For additional details about proper medication disposal, including other resources, visit www.SWACO.org.
