We all have unwanted or expired medications in our cabinets but disposing of them safely is easier than ever.
New York State offers a Drug Take Back Program, funded by pharmaceutical manufacturers, which provides residents with FREE mail-back supplies for disposing of unwanted medications, inhalers, and auto-injectors. According to the program, chain pharmacies must either have secure medication disposal drop boxes in their stores—like many local Walgreens and CVS locations—or provide customers with information about the mail-back program. Accepted pharmaceuticals include prescription and over-the-counter medications, veterinary medications, and nutritional supplements.
To order mail-back supplies and find convenient, secure disposal drop-off locations, residents can visit www.medtakebacknewyork.org or call the following toll-free numbers: (844) 4-TAKE-BACK or (844) 482-5322.
Please note that sharps and syringes are NOT accepted in this take back program, and they should not be placed in household recycling or trash. All hospitals and nursing homes in New York State are legally required to accept home-generated sharps as a free, community service through their sharps collection programs. Call first to find out hours, days and where to drop them off. Additional information and locations for sharps disposal can be found below. The ecopark also accepts unwanted medication and sharps from Monroe County residents at no cost with no appointment necessary.

We received a letter from the NYSDEC stating that beginning this spring, DEC will no longer offer hogweed control services on personal property. Instead, they are focusing on educating landowners and equipping them with information on how to safely and effectively control and/or monitor for giant hogweed. Included with the letter was a map of where hogweed was discovered and removed at the creek behind the town hall. Year detected: 2016; no plants found in 2024. Please visit DEC’s webpage at http://on.ny.gov/gianthogweed for more information about giant hogweed identification and management. DEC is available to help you determine the best management practices for your site. You can email DEC at [email protected] or call the giant hogweed information line at 845-256-3111 with any questions you may have.
