There will be a free medication take-back day in Truckee and on April 28 at the Gateway Shopping Center from 9am-1pm.

This is an opportunity to drop off unneeded or expired prescription and over-the-counter medications safely, effectively, and anonymously. Put pills into a zip-lock bag.

There are also permanent drug bins at the Truckee Police Department and the Placer County Sheriff’s Office-Tahoe station.
