Knife Amnesty Bin – Rochdale Police Station

Residents are advised that a permanent knife amnesty bin is available at the front of Rochdale Police Station on The Esplanade. This initiative allows anyone to safely and anonymously surrender knives without fear of prosecution.

Items placed in the bin are securely destroyed and will not be traced back to individuals. Disposing of unwanted or illegal knives helps reduce the risk of serious harm and supports ongoing efforts to tackle knife crime in our community.

If you have concerns about knife possession or related incidents, please contact GMP via 101 or 999 in emergencies.
