Old expired medications

Where do I take old 'Dated' medications for disposal? I tried to take to a pharmacy and was told they are accounted for meds provided to the customer and those thrown away.
I know I cannot place in for the garbage/trash. Certainly not flush in the toilet.
ANYONE?

most people either flush or throw them in the trash...... if the pharmacy wont take them back, then you dont have many other options. when in doubt, google it.

@YourMomsSWcrush: I tried burning scrap wood in my large back yard. Neighbors called the Fire dept.
