Delran Township Police Department installs new “Project Medicine Drop” box

Delran Township Police Department installs new “Project Medicine Drop” box to help residents dispose of unused medications and to prevent prescription drug abuse.



Det. Irons and Lt. Williams

Delran Township announced today that it has joined the New Jersey Attorney General’s “Project Medicine Drop” initiative, and has installed a project medicine drop box at Delran Police Headquarters.  
Today’s announcement makes it easier and more convenient than ever for Delran Township residents to take an active role in the fight against the nationwide epidemic of opiate and heroin abuse, which often is fueled by the abuse of prescription painkillers.

“Project Medicine Drop is a natural addition to our commitment to help improve the public safety and quality of life in Delran Township.  It will encourage our residents to be fully aware of the potential for abuse presented by otherwise beneficial medications,” Delran Township Police Chief Al Parente said. 

The department’s new Project Medicine Drop Box is located at 900 Chester Ave. Delran NJ 08075.  Residents may visit the Delran Township Police Department at any time 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 day a year, to dispose of their unused or excess medications. 

Delran Township Police is one of the first towns to have a mobile drug drop box and we will be deploying it at community events.  We will post the dates and locations on the police Facebook page and the township website so stay tuned for more details. Any requests for the mobile drug drop box can be made to Det. Irons at firons@delrantownship.org.

Project Medicine Drop is an important component of the New Jersey Attorney General’s effort to stop the diversion and abuse of prescription drugs, including highly addictive opiate painkillers. 

Through this initiative, the State Division of Consumer Affairs installs secure “prescription drug drop boxes” at police departments, sheriffs and State Police barracks across New Jersey, allowing citizens to safely dispose of their unused, excess, or expired prescription medications.

Members of the public are invited to visit the Project Medicine Drop sites and drop off any unused prescription medications anonymously and with no questions asked.  Most Project Medicine Drop sites make this service available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 365 days a year. 

By giving New Jerseyans a safe and secure method to dispose of unneeded medication, Project Medicine Drop helps prevent the abuse of these drugs.  This initiative also protects New Jersey’s environment by keeping these drugs out of landfills and out of the water supply.  More information about Project Medicine Drop, including the full list of Project Medicine Drop locations, can be found at http://www.njconsumeraffairs.gov/meddrop.
