Tredyffrin Easttown Drug Drop?

The problem

Ever have left over medicine? Of course you do and it sits around in your medicine cabinet because you know you don't want to flush it down the sink or the toilet. But what do you do with it? Theft of medicines at Open houses is one of the top things we warn sellers about when listing their homes. So knowing how to dispose of unwanted medication is information you need to know about as a home owner.

The Answer

Some pharmacies will take returns and dispose of them, but most will not. But in Tredyffrin and Easttown Townships home owners can now drop off unused medication at their township offices in these secured drop boxes. Having had estate listings and dealt with relatives of deceased family members who are overwhelmed already to then have to deal with disposing of medicines can some times be just the last straw. 

Medicine dropoff

Where

So look out at the township office for these drop boxes.

Tredyffrin Township Office is located at 1100 Duportail Road, Berwyn, PA 19312

Easttown Township Office is located at 566 Beaumont Road, Devon, PA 19333

You cannot drop needles or syringes in these drop boxes and there is clear signage of what you can drop and what you cannot. These drop boxes are secure. Great benefit for township home owners.

Karen Hellier some pharmacies will others won't not quite sure why they won't, there should be some sort of rule that if you issue the drugs you take them back if not required for disposal.

Every once in a while New Casle County will have these and there are usually drop offs at local nursing homes. It's a great idea to have them all the time!

Carolyn Roland I agree, to have them there all the time allows you to just drop things in there when you are at the township building.

This is a great service, and your post has identified a serious problem.  There are several organizations here that will accept old medicines rather than have people flush them into the water supply.

Debb Janes I love this, in the past with seniors who are selling or estates there has been nowhere to dispose of drugs locally, there was one pharmacy about 10 miles away and I would drive there to drop them off. This is convenient and simple and local.
