I need some small pill containers. Not any old pill container, however.

These are the white, clear, or orange PLASTIC containers that pills come in from drug stores, pharmacies, doctor's offices, clinics, hospitals, etc. They are most often used for prescription medications – see picture at:

The ones I can use are 1.5” (one and a half inches) wide on the top or wider – that's the top of the container, NOT the top of the lid.

If they are wider than 1.5”, that's OK. I can use them. They also need to be at least 2” tall – or taller.

But I can't use them if the top of the container is less than 1.5”. Many are 1.25” across. That is too narrow for my needs.

In the photo, the containers on the left are at least 1.5” wide – I can use them. The containers on the right are too narrow – less than 1.5” wide.

I also can't use containers that are made of glass – only plastic.

You can throw your old pill containers out, of course -- but I can put them to good use. You can put them in a recycle bin, but they won't be recycled – because of what might have been in them. So why not let me RE-USE them?

You will have to dispose of any left over pills – but don't simply flush them down the toilet! Any pharmacy/drug store/clinic/etc. Will have a drop-off box where you can dispose of any unused pills.

I use these containers to store and ship photographic film – around the world.

I can use any number – as long as they are the right size, and empty!

I'm not in any rush, so if you want time to save them up, that's OK with me.

I'm in South West Denver near Federal and Hampden. If you have some, let me know, and we can discuss a pick-up or drop-off time and location – at YOUR convenience!!!

Thank you.
