Palos Verdes homes owners have an opportunity to dispose of unwanted medication. The Drug Enforcement Administration has scheduled another National Prescription drug Take Back Day. Last year close to 400,000 pounds of unwanted or expired medications were safely and properly disposed of.
If you have any unwanted, over the counter or prescription medications, you can drop them off at the Palos Verdes Estates Police Department on April 28th, 2012, from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. If you are unable to make this date, contact your local pharmacy to see if they can dispose of them for you. Every year there are tons of medications and other type of poisons that enter our local oceans which have devastating effects on the environment. Let’s all do our part in keeping our water clean.
The Palos Verdes Estates Police Department is located at 340 Palos Verdes Drive West, Palos Verdes Estates.
