The Lower Pottsgrove Police Department now has a Med Return box installed in the police department main lobby. The box is generally available for access between
8:00 AM and 7:00 PM Mon-Fri. Anyone can come into the station and drop your unused medications into the secure container without being questioned;
NO ID IS REQUIRED AND NO OFFICIAL POLICE REPORTS ARE DONE. This is a self-service disposal site. We ask that you do not use the container to dispose of any syringes, sharps or liquid medications.
Additional instructions are posted on the box.
If you are unable to drop your unused medications off during regular office hours, you can arrange to have an officer return to station if they are
available. The officer will then permit you access to dispose of your unused medications. All collected medications will periodically be turned over
to the DEA for proper disposal.
The 6th annual Lower Pottsgrove Township Police Bike Rodeo will be held on Saturday, May 25th from 9am to 2pm. Please see the flyer attached here.

There have been many changes to your curbside pick up in 2013. For more detailed information, please visit our Township Waste Collection page.
a) Leaf waste will only be collected on the first Monday of April, May and June in the spring and October, November and December in the fall. Drop off locations for leaf and yard waste are available.
b) New state regulations prohibit electronics from being disposed of in our curbside trash. A new state law mandates that all retailers that sell electronics must recycle them. Ask at the location you purchase your electronics if they will accept the old electronics to recycle them..
c) Trash collection bills can now be paid by credit card. See SERVICES for explanation.
d) Household hazardous waste may not be disposed of curbside. Montgomery County sponsors collection events throughout the area each year.
