Drug Take Back

The Canaan Police Department maintains an official DEA Drug Drop Off Box in the Station Lobby, 52 NH Route 118 Canaan, New Hampshire 03741.

Returning unused prescriptions prevents pill abuse and theft by ridding our homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. Bring your pills for disposal.

The DEA cannot accept liquids or needles or sharps, only pills or patches. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.
