Tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., residents are offered a safe and anonymous disposal method for any unneeded or expired prescription drugs.
They can drop off old, expired, unneeded, and unwanted tablets, capsules, patches, and other solid forms of prescription drugs, no questions asked, in the lobby area of the following four locations:
Hoboken Police Headquarters, 106 Hudson St., Fox Hill Gardens, 311 13th St., Adams Gardens, 220 Adams St., and Monroe Gardens, 221 Jackson St.
E-cigarette and vaping devices will also be collected, but only if the batteries have been removed. If the battery cannot be removed, consumers can check with large electronic chain stores who may accept the device for proper disposal.
