National Prescription Drug Take Back Day, Saturday, April 28
West River Valley Thrives invites community members to take advantage of Prescription Drug Take Back Day, Saturday, April 28th. Take some time to clean out your medicine cabinets of all extra unused or expired prescription medication.
Many drugs are addictive or can have adverse effects for someone not prescribed the drug. Proper prescription drug disposal can help keep them out of our kids’ hands and prevent pollution of our waterways.
To dispose of your medication safely, drop them off at one of the local permanent drop boxes at the following locations:
– Windham Co. Sheriff’s Office in Newfane (802-365-4942)
– Brattleboro Police Department (802-257-7950)
– Wilmington Police Department (802-464-8593)
– Bellows Falls Police Department (802-463-1234)
