Sheriff Marc Lahrman accepts expired pharmaceuticals from Alice Burke of Crothersville during Saturday’s “Recycle-Mania” held at the Dollar General Store parking lot.
Over five gallons of expired prescription pills were turned in for proper disposal, according to Debbie Hackman, director of Jackson County Recycling District which sponsored the event.
Around 46 area residents showed up to recycle electronics, pharmaceuticals, household hazardous waste and have documents shredded during the four-hour recycling event.
