The Hammonton Police Department will be hosting a Prescription Drug collection Day 2/15/2020 from 9am till 1pm.
Hammonton residents are asked to bring their unwanted prescription drugs to the police station on the collection date and time,
Please do not bring them to other area police departments to dispose of them if you are a Hammonton resident.
The Hammonton Police Department has participated in medication collection initiatives for years. The drug collection box that we had affixed in our lobby was being improperly used and had almost life threatening consequences. Since we have suspended the program, we will be hosting designated dates to accept unused, unwanted, and expired medications from our residences so they may be safely disposed.
Our upcoming event will be held on Saturday February 15th, 2020 from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm in the lobby of the Hammonton Police Department. An officer will supervise the collection of those accepted medication items to be disposed.
We will be accepting: Pills, Capsules, Patches, Pet medication.
We WILL NOT be accepting: Syringes (needles), liquids, or Powders.
