Unused and expired prescriptions are often, lost, stolen, misused by family members or mistakenly confused with current prescriptions. We encourage our community members to bring any unused or expired prescriptions to the Fernandina Beach Police Department located at 1525 Lime Street and dispose of them in our secure bin located in the lobby (Monday – Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm). These prescription medications are collected and properly disposed of at regular intervals. Spread the word, we’ll be glad to take those drugs off your hands

I’ve used this method of disposal several times and it’s a great service. The photo, however, is a bit misleading. Pills have to be removed from the bottles and placed in plastic bags, like the sealable ones used for food storage. The Police Dept doesn’t take the bottles, just the pills.
