BEFORE YOU VISIT

Please take a moment to review How Testing Works and the Limitations on Results that we can provide.

We usually only need a tiny 10mg (0.01g) sample to run a test. See our How Testing Works page for minimum quantities of different substances.

At drop-off, we’ll take only what we need—you can keep the rest.

Please note that once the sample is tested, it cannot be returned.


GETTING YOUR RESULTS

  • The test typically takes 10–15 minutes, but wait times can be longer during busy periods.
  • If there’s a line-up, results may take 1–2 hours.
  • We operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

Pro Tips

  • Arrive Early: Please come at least 1.5 hours before closing to ensure we can complete your test. If you arrive right before we close, we may not be able to process your sample that day.
  • Plan Ahead for Busy Periods: Days leading up to major city events, as well as summer months and the holiday season, tend to be especially busy. Consider dropping off your samples with ample notice (ie. a few days or a week in advance) to avoid long wait times.

Result Delivery Options:

We’ll provide an estimated time for pick-up if you choose to wait for a result card.

In-person testing is also available at some overdose prevention sites through Vancouver Coastal Health.
