Do you have unwanted ammunition around the house that needs to disposed of safely?

Local RCMP can help with that.

Whatever you do, don’t just toss it in the household trash.

Chilliwack RCMP officials are reminding Chilliwack residents they can drop it off at the local detachment.

“Ammunition is hazardous and poses a safety risk to City of Chilliwack staff when placed in garbage. Instead, call RCMP to make a plan to drop it off at the RCMP detachment,” RCMP said in a tweet.
