Unless you have some real reason to believe that old medications in the home or put into the trash will be taken, why spend money, taxpayer's or your own, on anything?
Some homes have individuals who would misuse the medication - they need the extra handling. While it seems a stretch of the imagination, there could be a situation where it is known that people are ripping open trash bags just to see what they might find. If you feel you are in one of those situations, make use of the resources available. If you are not then maybe it's better to leave the resources for those that really do need them.
