2026 Recycling Weekend: Prescription Drug Takeback with LMPD
Bring your unused or expired medications to the Louisville Zoo bus lot for our Prescription Drug Take Back event, where LMPD officers will collect and safely dispose of them to protect our community and waterways. LMPD will accept any items related to prescription drugs or narcotics. All sharps must be capped or brought in a milk jug or similar sealed, plastic container.
Recycling Weekends
Join us weekends in April to learn how recycling programs help our planet. Organizations and programs that help benefit the air, water, land, and of course, animals, will be featured each weekend.
