Morris County residents surrender 519 pounds of prescription drugs
MORRIS COUNTY, N.J. — National Prescription Drug Take Back Day in Morris County saw residents surrendering 519 pounds of medications. The first event of the year aimed to encourage the public to turn over unused, unwanted, or expired prescription medicine anonymously.
Morris County Prosecutor Robert J. Carroll, Chief of Detectives Robert McNally, and Morris County Sheriff James M. Gannon were among the officials who announced the results. “Residents of Morris County brought unused or expired prescription drugs to designated locations,” they stated.
Three locations in Morris County were staffed by local law enforcement, including Shoprite of Greater Morristown in Hanover Township, the ACME Supermarket in Randolph, and the Stop and Shop Supermarket in Morris Plains. Each of these sites contributed to the overall collection.
The breakdown of the surrendered medications was detailed, with 132 pounds collected at the Shoprite of Greater Morristown, 172 pounds at the Stop and Shop of Morris Plains, and 215 pounds at the ACME of Randolph.
