Prescription Drug “Take-Back” Event

April 24th, 2012 · No Comments

The Bellevue Police Department is partnering with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) as part of a nationwide prescription drug “Take-Back” initiative. They want your expired, unused, and unwanted medications, including prescription drugs.

On Saturday, April 28th from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Bellevue Police will have three locations throughout the city set up to collect controlled, non-controlled, and over-the-counter medications. No identification will be required or requested. There will be a uniformed police officer available to assist you. Unused and unwanted medications will be collected at the following locations:

- City Hall Bellevue Police Lobby, 450 110th Avenue NE

- Crossroads Community Police Station, 1336 156th Avenue NE, next to Chipotle

- Factoria Community Police Station, 3915 Factoria Boulevard SE, near Nordstrom Rack

Individuals are encouraged to remove identifying information from prescription labels. This is a great opportunity to safely dispose of old or discarded drugs from your home.
