The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office is pairing up with SWACO this month for a drug take-back initiative, according to the City of Gahanna's announcement. Kroger Marketplace in the Hunters Ridge Shopping Center will transform into a drop-off point where folks can safely get rid of unwanted prescription meds.Lock the date - it's Saturday, April 26, from the A.
M. stretch of 10 a.m.
to the post-noon lull at 2 p.m., you'll find sheriffs ready to take those pills off your hands, no questions.
The DEA's National Prescription Drug Take Back Day at the Gahanna location is not just about clearing space in your home, it's a community service move, too. And SWACO is all about that life, advocating for the planet-wise way to dispose of those expired doses.Everyone in Franklin County is welcome to this free event.
You don't have to open your wallet or purse to participate, but you might need to peek at SWACO’s website for the nitty-gritty on what goes in the drop-off bin and what doesn't. The site also lists year-round disposal locations because, let's face it, medications expire on their own schedule, not ours.Click over to the Gahanna government site, where you'll find a breakdown of eligible items for drop-off.
