West Bridgewater Police Department Headquarters has a Prescription Drug Receptacle located right in the front lobby. You can safely dispose of unwanted, outdated or unnecessary prescription drugs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with no questions asked.
Studies show that often the path to drug abuse begins by taking drugs meant for other family members, friends or by abusing their own prescribed painkillers beyond their intended use. Proper disposal of old or unused prescription drugs keeps them out of reach of a bad decision that could lead to drug addiction down the road. West Bridgewater Police Department strongly encourages anyone with unnecessary prescriptions or old medications to help us keep them off the streets and out of the hands of loved ones by disposing of them quickly and easily at WBPD Headquarters. Please check the list below.
