Drug Collection

In order to reduce substance abuse, prevent childhood poisonings, and help protect our environment, private citizens can bring their prescription or over the counter medications, ointments, inhalers, patches, non aerosol sprays, creams, vials, and pet medications. 

Items NOT accepted include illegal drugs, needles/sharps, mercury thermometers, aerosol cans, bio hazardous materials (anything containing a bodily fluid or blood), flares, personal care products (shampoo, soaps, lotions, sunscreens, etc...), household hazardous waste (paint, pesticides, chemicals, oil, or gas) or acids. 

Notes

• No medication accepted from businesses or clinics.
• For information on sharps disposal sites for Waukesha County residents, please visit Waukesha County's recycling website. 
• We have green containers in both the West and East lobbies for these items which are available 24 hours a day
• Remember: No medications should ever be thrown in the toilet; let us dispose of them properly.
