Unwanted Meds Being Collected at Kinnelon Police Department

Residents, non-residents can drop off medicine inside police lobby.

For the second year, the Kinnelon Police Department will be offering a place for residents to bring their unwanted medications without any questions inside the police department lobby.

Medications can be dropped off without question in the MedReturn box right inside the front door.

The medication dropbox is not only open to Kinnelon residents but anyone who has unwanted medication they wish to dispose of. Police will not be accepting needles, infectious waste or aerosol cans through the box.
