Ease of Disposal
Graffiti Street Crime Image The Fort Smith Police Department recognizes the dangers of keeping unused, expired or otherwise unwanted medications and the drop box makes it simple for the public to dispose of those drugs in a safe manner. Citizens do not have to fill out any paperwork or even speak to a police department employee, they can simply drop off their unwanted medications and leave – no questions asked.

The drop box is not limited to prescription medications. Illegal drugs will also be accepted; however, liquids and syringes are not allowed.

The box was made possible by a donation from Nunnelle & Wright Commercial Properties.
