Drop off medications at any of the eight Fairfax County District Police Stations (pills or liquids only, no pressurized canisters or needles) between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Operation Medicine Cabinet Cleanout is a partnership with the Rotary Clubs of Fairfax County, the Safe Community Coalition and local businesses, in collaboration with the following Fairfax County government departments: Police, Health, Economic Initiatives, Neighborhood and Community Services, Public Works and Environmental Services, and the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board.
Drug take back programs are important because they are a safe method for disposing of prescription drugs and are organized and closely monitored by local, state, and federal government agencies.
Safe disposal of unused or expired medications prevents drug abuse and misuse, accidental poisoning, and protects the environment.
