Meeker County, Minnesota

Drug Take-Back Program

BEGINNING MONDAY, APRIL 2, 2012, the Meeker County Sheriff's Office, in partnership with Meeker County Public Health and Litchfield Area Rural Partners in Prevention (LARPP), is pleased to offer "Take It To The Box", a drug take-back program to Meeker County residents. This is a free service to County residents in an effort to provide a safe and secure way of disposing of unneeded, unwanted, or expired prescription or over-the-counter medications. There is a secured drop box in the lobby of the Law Enforcement Center. The Law Enforcement Center lobby is open 24/7/365, so you can drop your medications any time that is convenient for you. Drugs do not have to be in their original packaging. Just bring them in and dump them in the secure drop box....it's as simple as that! See the document link below for contact information if you have questions.
