Program Description

Event Details

The Northport Police Department and the Suffolk County Sheriff's Office will collect unused or expired prescription and over-the-counter medications. Proper disposal of these items is essential for risk reduction and environmental protection. No questions asked and no personal information is required. Only medications in pill form will be accepted and must be placed in a plastic bag before arrival. Ask the Adult Services Librarian for a listing of places to safely dispose of medical sharps.

This event is cosponsored with the Northport-East Northport Community Drug and Alcohol Task Force.
