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?

I thought the pharmacy was supposed to take them?

@LedRobster: Pharmacies are in the business of selling new ones, not taking back expired meds. Legally they cannot take meds back once dispensed to the customer.
