Prescription Drug Drop Box

Rockville residents can safely dispose of unused, unwanted, or expired medications — no questions asked — in a prescription drug drop box located in the front lobby of the Rockville City Police Station.

The drop box, which resembles a mailbox, accepts prescription and over-the-counter medications in the form of pills, tablets, capsules, patches, and pet medications. Items should be in their original container or in a sealed plastic bag, with identifying information removed or blacked out, if possible. Liquids and syringes are not accepted.

This free, anonymous service is available to the public 24/7. The drop box is under constant video surveillance and permanently secured. All medications collected are safely destroyed.
