First Friday Sharps Recycling

First Friday sharps recycling runs from 8 a.m. to noon on the first Friday of each month in the Village Hall lobby at 2500 E. Lake Avenue. When the weather warms up, the event will move outdoors to the Village Hall parking lot.  


Prescription and over-the-counter drugs are no longer accepted at First Friday events. Medications can be safely disposed of in the 24/7 dropbox at the Glenview Police Department or at most Walgreens and CVS locations.  


In addition to sharps, the Village will continue to collect American flags, hearing aids, shoes, eyeglasses, ink cartridges, light bulbs and cell phones as part of its First Friday collection.
