Shed the Meds

Looking to get rid of unwanted or expired medications in a way that is safe and protects our environment? Drop them off for safe disposal by the Suffolk County Sheriff's Office.

Safely disposing of medication prevents pollution of our ground water and keeps them out of the hands of young children and others who might abuse them.

To schedule a Shed the Meds event at your agency, please use the Program Request form and scroll down to select "Shed the Meds" under "Community Programs."

Shed the Meds events are for community members only. No commercial or doctor's office expired medication disposal. Liquid medications and sharps will not be accepted at the events.

For more information, contact the Community Relations Bureau at 631-852-5611.
