&lt;p&gt;It was easy to arrange a visit via email, came into the practice and destroyed the CDs for us. &amp;nbsp;You just need to make sure you have a large enough destruction kit as they put the whole bottles in there as well as the drugs. &amp;nbsp;They give you a copy of the form they fill out to confirm the destruction and also sign the CD register for you.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Out of date Schedule 2 drug disposal</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/168624?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 18 May 2017 19:20:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:bcc8ba33-e698-4914-8504-0c992c773e99</guid><dc:creator>Sal the 1st</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I am going to have a walk across the car park tomorrow and ask at the cop shop - seems daft not to now we are so close&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Out of date Schedule 2 drug disposal</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/168623?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 18 May 2017 13:04:19 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:b77ab160-0a7a-4e6f-8391-5b3508a79aea</guid><dc:creator>Suzanne Hall</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;We have a visiting orthopaedic vet from another practice&amp;nbsp;who witnesses the disposal of our OOD Schd 2 when needed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Out of date Schedule 2 drug disposal</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/168620?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 May 2017 23:19:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:9ac41b5f-3acf-415f-b566-8ad12a7ec16b</guid><dc:creator>Sal the 1st</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I was going to suggest asking another vet practice to witness your disposal and in return you could witness theirs.
