The Town of Pegram is pleased to announce the new prescription drug take-back box program, partnering with the Cheatham County Sheriff’s Office and the State of Tennessee to provide this service to residents.

Prescription drug take-back boxes provide a place where unused prescription drugs can be safely disposed. These permanent boxes prevent prescription and over-the-counter medications from getting into the hands of children and into the waterways. They make sure they are disposed of in a safe, environmentally-friendly manner.

The take-back box will be located in the lobby of Pegram Town Hall and accessible to residents during normal business hours. Please see below for a list of acceptable items and additional details.

Accepted Items: (Less than 4oz in ziplock bag)

  • Prescription Medications
  • Over-the-Counter Medications
  • Liquid Medication Bottles

Not Accepted Items:

  • Illegal Drugs
  • Needles/Syringes
  • Mercury Containing Devices
