Take them to any pharmacy and they'll dispose of them for you.

Usually I'll flush the pills and then just throw the empty bottles in the trash. Most dissolve almost right away, plus you can keep the extra bottle they can make handy little storage containers if you take the lables off.

Flush it, it would all end up there anyhow.
