Got drugs? Bring them to Snellville PD for drop-off event

The Snellville Police Department will take your expired or unwanted prescription drugs on April 29.

The police are participating in a National Drug Take Back event, when people can give their local police department prescription drugs for safe disposal. It’s designed to prevent the drugs from falling into the hands of children or people who could potentially abuse them.

Snellville police will set up a drive-through drop-off at their headquarters at 2315 Wisteria Drive from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 29. Snellville police have collected “hundreds of pounds of unwanted medication” in past events, according to a city release.
