Prescription Drugs

The Bridgman Police Department accepts old or unused medications.  The drop box is at City Hall in the lobby Monday through Friday 8:00 am to 45:00 pm Monday-Thursday and 8:00 am to 3:00 pm Friday except holidays.  The items collected are destroyed in accordance with federal and state laws.  It is important not to flush or pour unused medicine down the drain.  This helps protect Lake Michigan, reduce substance abuse, and prevent childhood poisoning.
