Winnebago County residents can dispose of unwanted medication at any of the four permanent drug drop sites located at local Police Departments: Fox Crossing, Menasha, Neenah, and Oshkosh.
You can make a difference:
- Improve water quality in Lake Winnebago
- Reduce drug-related crime
- Prevent prescription drug abuse
- Prevent accidental poisoning, especially in children and pets
Drug Drop Boxes do not accept:
- medical supplies (thermometers)
- biological waste (eye drops)
- sharps (needles, syringes, and lancets) **
**Wisconsin law requires all residents to dispose of sharps (needles, syringes, and lancets) properly. It is illegal to put sharps in the trash or with recyclables. Follow these guidelines for proper collection of used needles and return them to a designated sharps disposal location.
Contact Winnebago County Public Health for more information.
