This study investigates the often-overlooked aspect of drug enforcement—the proper disposal of confiscated narcotics and contraband. Focusing on law enforcement agencies, particularly the PDEA and PNP DEU, the research utilizes qualitative methods, including in-depth interviews with key informants involved in anti-drug operations. Through purposive sampling, representation is ensured across diverse geographic regions and law enforcement ranks. Thematic analysis reveals complex decision-making processes, emphasizing legality, ethics, environmental sustainability, and collaboration. The study emphasized a various approach involving stringent procedures, oversight, transparency, and adaptability. It advocates for diverse disposal methods, environmental responsibility, and alignment with sustainability principles. To enhance environmental commitment, agencies are urged to invest in research, collaborate with experts, integrate environmental considerations into training, and establish benchmarks for impact assessments. The findings propose strategic planning, collaboration, safety protocol refinement, and adherence to legal frameworks to address practical challenges in contraband disposal. Ultimately, a comprehensive approach involving regular reviews, transparency, public participation, and advocacy for sustainable practices aims to improve policies and practices, reinforcing a commitment to transparency, sustainability, and responsible community engagement. Law enforcement agencies, especially the PDEA and PNP DEU, face complex decisions when disposing of confiscated narcotics and contraband, involving legal, ethical, and environmental considerations. To maintain operational integrity, recommended strategies include continuous training, keeping personnel informed about legal changes, establishing ethical guidelines, incorporating environmental sustainability, and formalizing collaborative decision-making processes. These strategies aim to balance legal, ethical, and environmental dimensions effectively. Emphasizing stringent procedures, training programs, oversight, accountability, transparency, and adaptability is crucial to uphold high standards throughout the disposal process. The approach involves a comprehensive and proactive effort to ensure compliance with legal and ethical guidelines, while fostering continuous improvement and sustainability. Law enforcement, including PDEA and PNP DEU, prioritizes legal, ethical, and eco-friendly contraband disposal. They employ stringent procedures, training, and adaptability, ensuring compliance and upholding public trust. Universally addressing practical challenges, agencies navigate logistical, legal, and safety concerns through robust planning and collaboration. Integrated into anti-drug operations, contraband disposal prevents re-entry, disrupts trafficking networks, and contributes to operational efficiency, public safety, and positive perception. Proper disposal aligns with ethical and environmental standards, playing a pivotal role in law enforcement success against drug trafficking.
