Medication Drop-Off

You may now drop-off unused and expired medications Monday – Friday 8AM to 4PM in the lobby of the Hagerstown Police Department. Thanks to a grant from the Washington County Health Department we are now able to offer a safe and anonymous “No Questions Asked” way to properly dispose of medications.  

Medications can also be turned-in at the Washington County Sheriff’s Office Patrol Division, located at 500 Western Maryland Parkway, Medications are accepted 24 hours daily, every day of the year, with no appointment necessary.
