Disposing of Compact Florescent Bulbs (CFB)




Compact Florescent Bulbs (CFB) have many positive qualities including:

waste basket- lower energy use for a given light output and longer life ...but they contain small amounts of mercury ... sdo ... how do you safely dispose of them?

 Home Depot now has a CFB recycling program ... just bring your CFB to the front service desk and they will collect them for safe disposal of them.

>>> I tried this at a local Home Depot and it was just that easy!Home Depot Logo

"... a national in-store, ...  (CFL) bulb recycling program at all 1,973 The Home Depot locations. This free service is the first such offering made so widely available by a retailer in the United States ...Home Depot Canada launched a CFL recycling program in November, 2007."
