The Lake County Sheriff’s Office is once again participating in the Drug Enforcement Administration National Prescription Drug Take Back event on Saturday, April 26, 2014 from 10:00 AM-2:00 PM. This event will be the first national event this year. In 2013, Lake County collected approximately 6,700 pounds of prescription drugs.
Ridding medicine cabinets of these prescription drugs prevents children from accidently consuming them and unauthorized users from obtaining them. The Lake County Sheriff’s Office is committed to limiting the availability of prescription drugs and protecting our environment by properly disposing them.
Anyone having unwanted or unused prescription drugs can drop them off at one of the following locations for proper disposal. The Lake County Sheriff’s Office has three locations: Beach Park Village Hall located at 11270 W. Wadsworth Rd Beach Park, Volo Village Hall located at 500 S. Fish Lake Rd Volo, and Village of Deer Park Lake Zurich Fire Station 4 located at 21970 Field Parkway Deer Park.
