Apr 29, 2015 11:18AM ● By Kevin
In partnership with CVS Pharmarcy and Drugfree.org, Newark Police have recently installed a drug-collection box at NPD. 

The box will be accessible Monday through Friday, between the hours of 8 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.  These collection boxes help rid communities of unwanted medication that otherwise may be abused or discarded in a way that could contaminate our water supply. 

The following items are accepted in the collection box:
  • prescriptions
  • prescription patches
  • medications
  • ointments
  • vitamins
  • samples
  • pet medication
For more information, contact the Newark Police Department.
