The 31st. National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is Saturday, October 24, 2026, from 10am-2pm.

The drug overdose epidemic in the United States is a clear and present public health, public safety, and national security threat. DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day reflects DEA’s commitment to Americans’ safety and health, encouraging the public to remove unneeded medications from their homes as a measure of preventing medication misuse and opioid addiction from ever starting.

On Saturday October, 24, 2026, we will be hosting the drug take back in the lobby of the Wintersville Police Department, 200 Grove Street in Wintersville from 10:00am-2:00pm. Please bring all of your unneeded medications so that they do not sit in your cabinet and risk getting into the hands of the wrong person.
We accept all controlled substance medications (scheduled drugs), non-controlled substance medications, over the counter medications, vitamins, syrups, ointments, creams, lotions, and inhalers.

** We will NOT accept any sharps items, thermometers or batteries, medical waste, aerosols, chemicals/disinfectants such as peroxide, or any personal care products.
Aside from the DEA National Rx Takeback Day, Wintersville Police Department has a drug drop off box in our lobby. Please follow these same guidelines when placing any items in the drop box.

Today, on the Women’s Club National Day of Service, these wonderful ladies from the Wintersville Women’s Club stopped by the Wintersville Police Department to make a very special donation.

They provided our officers with teddy bears, blankets, and various other items to keep on hand when we encounter children experiencing stressful or traumatic situations.

These simple items can provide comfort and reassurance to a child during an incredibly difficult time. Something as small as a teddy bear or a warm blanket can help ease anxiety, provide a sense of security, and shift a child’s focus away from the traumatic circumstances surrounding them.

We are incredibly grateful to the Wintersville Women’s Club for choosing to spend their National Day of Service giving back to the children in our community. Your generosity and compassion will make a meaningful difference when our officers encounter children during some of their most difficult moments.

Thank you for helping us care for our community’s youngest members!
