Clean them out. Keep them safe. Take them back.
10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, October 24, 2026
Too often, unused prescription, drugs, find their way into the wrong hands. That’s dangerous and can be tragic. That’s why the Newark Police Division is partnering with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) National Prescription Drug Take Back Campaign.
The campaign is designed to provide a safe, convenient, and responsible way for individuals and families to dispose of prescription drugs.
Cleary identifiable receptacles will be available at the following locations;
• Newark Police 5th Precinct, located at 480 Clinton Avenue
• Newark Police Emergency Services Unit, located at 472 Orange Street
Anyone depositing expired or unused medication may do so anonymously with no questions asked. #newarknj #police #takeback
