SMARxT Disposal

Medicines play an important role in treating certain conditions and diseases, but they must be taken with care. Unused portions of these medicines must be disposed of properly to avoid harm to waterways, wildlife, pets, and people.

Greensboro Beautiful partners with local agencies and pharmacies to provide a way to safely and properly dispose of unused medicines. Check back for the next city-wide collection event.

Responsible medicine disposal protects our waterways and environment. Learn more about environmentally responsible medicine disposal at the national SMARxT Disposal site.
