| Selected Material(s) |
| Fluorescent Light Ballasts |
Description: If you have a cardboard box big enough, place unbroken bulbs/tubes in it; if not, wrap them in a plastic bag. The household hazardous waste facilities will also accept broken tubes/lamps if they are in a plastic bag. However, it is preferred that these tubes/lamps be brought to the facility whole.
Restrictions: Not accepted from businesses. Fluorescent tubes contain elemental mercury mixed with powder. Crushing tubes creates mercury vapor which is difficult to contain. If you do break a lamp, try to avoid breathing the vapor that is released. Carefully sweep up the lamp, place in a plastic bag and place in a 5-gallon container with a lid.
Fees: No charge.
Serves residents only.
