Project Medicine Box

     Please drop medicine in the specifically designated drop box located in the lobby of Wyckoff Police Headquarters, 340 Franklin Ave, Wyckoff, which is accessible from the east side of Town Hall (railroad track side), Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 AM and 4:30 PM, and Saturdays between 9:00 AM and 1:00 PM. If you would like to drop unused medication outside of these hours, please press the call button on the lobby door and a uniformed police officer will be summoned to allow for access to dispose of your unused, excess, or expired medication. Please remove any labels which may contain personal information.

   Project Medicine Drop is an important component of the New Jersey Attorney General’s effort to stop the diversion and abuse of prescription drugs, including highly addictive opiate painkillers. Through this initiative, the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs installs secure “prescription drug drop boxes” at State Police barracks, sheriff’s offices, and police departments throughout the state, including two military installations and several college campuses, allowing citizens to safely dispose of their unused, excess, or expired prescription medications. 

    Members of the public are invited to visit the Project Medicine Drop sites and drop off any unused prescription medications anonymously and with no questions asked. Most Project Medicine Drop sites make this service available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

    By giving New Jerseyans a safe and secure method to dispose of unneeded medications, Project Medicine Drop helps prevent the abuse of these drugs. This initiative also protects New Jersey’s environment by keeping these drugs out of landfills and out of the water supply.
