Mayor Janice S. Mironov announced that the Township will participate in “Operation Medicine Cabinet” on Saturday, September 27, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with a drop box at the Police/Court Building.

Operation Medicine Cabinet is a program sponsored by the New Jersey Office of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) offering residents the opportunity to dispose of all unused, unwanted and expired medications in a safe and secure manner. East Windsor Township will have a drop box in the lobby of the Police/Court Building, located at 80 One Mile Road, for the collection of these various medications. Collected medications will be turned over to the DEA on the next business day for final disposal.

Mayor Mironov stated, “we encourage our residents to take advantage of this local opportunity to dispose of unused and unneeded medications in a safe and non-hazardous manner.” Mayor Mironov continued, “this program provides an opportunity to securely dispose of unused, unwanted and expired medications in an environmentally responsible manner and prevents possible misuse and access to these drugs by unauthorized persons and young people.”
