"Found Sharps" Drop-Off Sites
This program provides for the free drop-off of syringes found by the general public throughout the community. Prior to this important program, found syringes were often discarded in garbage carts and recycle carts; which is against Oregon state law, or simply thrown aside; which constitutes a major public health risk. Anyone finding such syringes should pick them up cautiously, deposit them into a rigid container with a lid, such as a metal coffee can and take them to any of the 22 drop-off sites listed below:
