Drug Take Back Day In Newtown: Where To Drop Off Medications

NEWTOWN, PA — The Newtown Township Police Department will be hosting a Drug Take Back Day from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Saturday at a drop off location at the Newtown Township Administration Building, 100 Municipal Drive, Newtown.

This year's Take Back Day in Bucks County will look slightly different due to COVID-19 safety protocols, but all county sites will be accepting medications through a drive up and drop in system. There are 47 public collection sites countywide.

Here's what to do:

• Bring prescription medications, vaping products, over-the-counter and pet medications for safe disposal
• As you approach the drop off site, stay in your vehicle. Maintain a safe distance between your vehicle and other vehicles in line
• Stay alert for pedestrians in the area
• Follow the directions of police or volunteers at the site
• Pull up to the drop off location, place your meds into the box
• Drive away at a safe speed knowing that you have helped!
