Safely Dispose of Unused Medications During This Saturday’s Take-Back Event
Date: October 21, 2026
Location: Springfield Township Building (2320 Township Rd, Quakertown, PA 18951)
Event Time: Saturday, October 24, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Springfield Township residents are encouraged to participate in the upcoming Medication Take-Back Day this Saturday, October 24th. This community-focused event provides a secure, convenient, and environmentally friendly way to dispose of unwanted, unneeded, or expired prescription drugs and household medications.
Why Participate?
Proper disposal protects our youth, homes, pets, and local streams. Flushing medications down the drain or leaving old prescription drugs unsecured in home cabinets poses preventable risks to our community.
