PRESCRIPTION DRUG COLLECTION

Individuals may drop off unused or out-dated prescription drugs at the Cedarburg Police Department. This service is being offered as a way in which to help eliminate prescription drug abuse, accidental poisonings, etc. Contrary to previous advice, unused/old medications should not be disposed of in the sink or toilet because studies have shown these medications are not being purified at wastewater treatment plants and are ending up in local waterways.
