You, your company or your organization can sponsor a secure medication drop box. It's easy and it saves lives.
WHY DROP BOXES?
They're easy to use and they work. Experience across the United States shows fixed-site drop boxes are the most effective method for collecting unused medicine, especially when located in pharmacies.
HOW ADOPTING A DROP BOX HELPS
A key reason more pharmacies are not placing drop boxes in their pharmacies is cost. By adopting a drop box, your organization makes it possible for more drop boxes to be available to Milwaukee and Racine County residents. More drop boxes = more lives saved.
THE COST OF ADOPTING A DROP BOX
A drop box costs $1600/year, which includes the box, liners and 12 scheduled medication disposal pickups. Sponsors will support this fee for a pharmacy’s drop box and signage above the box will include your logo and information about your sponsorship. Pharmacy hosts are responsible for arranging installation of the box and all medication disposal pickups. Payments for the box are made directly from sponsor to host pharmacy or reverse distribution (disposal) company.
POSITIVE COMMUNITY RELATIONS
We will arrange for media and social media exposure for both hosts and sponsors. We will include all sponsors on our website and all hosting pharmacies on our homepage map.
