Police Department

On behalf of all the officers employed by the Trempealeau Police Department, I welcome you to our website. It has truly been my pleasure to serve you as a police officer and ultimately the Chief of Police. I take great pride in getting to know all the citizens of Trempealeau. This website was created to provide relevant information to you whether you are a Trempealeau resident, a prospective applicant, or simply seeking information about our department through the Internet. At this time, I also want to inform you that the Trempealeau Police Department also has a Facebook Page that also provides the most up to date relevant information regarding the Village of Trempealeau.

I strongly believe that the cornerstone of a successful police department is their relationship with the community. Without your assistance, support and active involvement we can not make it happen. For example, we rely on citizens to be our eyes and ears in helping us succeed in our mission statement. When the citizens report crimes, suspicious behavior, disorderly activities, and any type of nuisances, they are making a direct impact on the overall quality of life and happiness within our Village.

We are proud that we are proactive in using innovative methods and technologies to provide the best law enforcement service possible to the citizens of Trempealeau. Please read our mission statement and vision statement, which are two philosophies that the Trempealeau Police Department lives by.

In an emergency, call 911

In fulfilling our mission, Officers will:

The Trempealeau Police Department has a Prescription Drug Drop-Off Box available in the Trempealeau Village Hall Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. The Police Department received this Medication Drop Box through a grant with the State of Wisconsin. The Medication Drop Box is a safe place to dispose of medication that is no longer needed or expired. Anyone wishing to dispose of unused, unwanted, or expired prescription or over-the-counter drugs is welcome to use the Medication Drop Box during this time and can do so anonymously (no need to check in with administrative staff). We accept all prescription medications in pill and patch form – please do not bring liquids. You can leave the medication in the original container, or if you are able, we prefer them to be removed from the original packaging and placed together in one package (Ziploc bag, box, plastic container, etc.). The medication is disposed of properly so it does not end up in the wrong hands, land fill, water treatment plant, or waterways.

Thank you for your participation over the last few years, because of your dedicated efforts we have been able to keep over 100 pounds of unused prescription medications off the streets and out of landfills!
