Permanent Drug Collection Boxes Now Available County-Wide
Our community comes together to make this dream a reality
Now
residents can rid themselves of unwanted, unneeded and unused drugs
conveniently anytime at any one of ten drug collection boxes located at police
stations throughout Stark County. These boxes are permanently housed at all of
our county’s police departments who have 24/7 surveillance and will be
monitored by their officers. All pharmaceutical drugs in the forms of pills,
liquids and creams will gladly be accepted. We recommend you take the label off
of any containers, or at minimum, use a Sharpie to blacken out your personal
information. Needles and syringes are not accepted. The collection boxes are located at
the police departments in:
- Alliance, 470 East Market Street
- Canton City, 218 Cleveland Avenue NE
- Canal Fulton, 1165 South Locust Street
- Jackson Twp., 7383 Fulton Drive, NW
- Louisville, 1150 West Main Street
- Massillon, 2 James Duncan Plaza
- Minerva, 209 North Market
- North Canton, 145 North Main Street
- Perry Twp., 622 Genoa Road
- Stark County Sheriff’s Office, 4500 Atlantic Blvd. NE
The
Stark County Narcotics Unit will be responsponsible for picking up the contents
on a regular basis. The contents will be weighed and then burned through the
generosity of Republic Steel in Massillon. This is the safest, eco-friendly way
to destroy drugs.
This important program has been made
possible due to many community partners, both public and private, who have
given financial and resourse support. Our Drug Collection Box partners include
