The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Like spring cleaning, this is an excellent way to clean out the medicine cabinet.

This is especially important if you have an old prescription of opioids, benzodiazepines, or other highly addictive medications in your home.

Studies have shown that most addicts obtain their medications from a friend or family members, especially by searching through medicine cabinets.

 Bring in your medications in their original prescription bottles to be emptied at the Verona Police Department and properly destroyed.
