Medication Drop Boxes
All Videos
Med Return drop boxes are available for residents to safely and securely drop off unused medications throughout Barron County. The Med Return drop box is a green bin, which resembles a library book drop. It is a safe, effective, and sustainable way to collect unwanted or expired household prescription, over-the-counter, and other unused medicines.
Funding for Med Return Drop box program came from Barron County Community Coalition in partnership with law enforcement to fight prescription drug abuse in Barron County.
