The Holiday Lakes Police Department provides community resources to help residents safely dispose of unwanted medications and have access to lifesaving naloxone (NARCAN).
These resources are part of HLPD's commitment to keeping medications out of the wrong hands, reducing accidental poisoning and misuse, and helping our community respond to an opioid overdose emergency.
Two resources are available through HLPD:
PRESCRIPTION DRUG DROP BOX
A secure location for residents to dispose of unwanted or expired medications.
NALOXONE (NARCAN) BOX
Naloxone is an emergency medication that can temporarily reverse the effects of an opioid overdose.
If you believe someone is experiencing an overdose, call 911 immediately. Naloxone is not a substitute for emergency medical care.
Have medications you no longer need? Dispose of them safely.
The Holiday Lakes Police Department provides a secure Prescription Drug Drop Box for residents to dispose of unwanted or expired medications. Safe disposal helps prevent accidental poisoning, medication misuse, and medications from getting into the wrong hands.
DROP BOX LOCATION
Holiday Lakes Police Department / City Hall(Inside)
195 N Texas Ave
Holiday Lakes, TX 77515

Residents may bring medications to the drop box anytime City Hall is open during these hours.

The Holiday Lakes Police Department maintains a publicly accessible NARCAN box outside City Hall so this lifesaving medication can be accessed when it is needed.
LOCATION
Outside Holiday Lakes City Hall / Police Department
195 N Texas Ave
Holiday Lakes, TX 77515
AVAILABLE 24/7
The NARCAN box is located outside the building and may be accessed at any time — day or night. You do not need to wait for City Hall or the Police Department to be
open.
SUSPECTED OVERDOSE? CALL 911.
If someone is experiencing or is suspected of experiencing an opioid overdose, call 911 immediately, retrieve NARCAN if available, and follow the instructions provided
with the medication.
NARCAN is an emergency resource and does not replace emergency medical care.
And I LOVE that HLPD has this outside. On the website, I'd make “AVAILABLE 24/7” and “CALL 911” bold so somebody panicking can find the important information in two seconds.
