Spring DEA National Drug Take-Back Day 2024

  • Locations in Madisonville, Sweetwater, Tellico Plains, & Vonore United States (map)

Too often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands. That's dangerous and often tragic. On Saturday, April 27th, the PWC, in partnership with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and local law enforcement, will provide the public the opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs. We will also have sharps containers for sharp disposal but space is limited for these items. Bring your pills for disposal. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked. Bring your unused or expired medications for safe & proper disposal to the following drive-thru locations:

Madisonville Carnival at the Park, Madisonville 12:00-4:00pm

Little Drug, Sweetwater 10:00-2:00pm

Ramp Festival, Tellico Plains Community Center 10:00-2:00pm

Kahite Clubhouse, Vonore 10:00-2:00pm
