The Sarasota Police Department will host its annual Done with the Gun firearm turn-in event on Saturday, July 11, 2026, providing community members with a safe and anonymous way to dispose of unwanted firearms. Gun locks will be available while supplies last.
 
The event will be held on Saturday, July 11, from 1 to 5 p.m. at 2099 Adams Lane in Sarasota.
 
Participants must ensure all firearms are unloaded and remain inside their vehicles upon arrival at the drop-off location. Officers will retrieve firearms directly from vehicles. No one should remove a firearm from a vehicle in the drop-off area.
 
Officers will accept a variety of items including non-working firearms, antiques, replicas, pellet guns and BB guns. This event is for firearms only. Ammunition, flares and fireworks will not be accepted. These items can be safely disposed of at any of Sarasota County’s chemical collection centers.
 
All firearms that are collected will be safely destroyed and removed from circulation.
