how do I recycle a compact flourescent bulb? I hear they contain harmful chemicals and shouldn’t be thrown out in the regular trash. What do I do with them? Thanks!
The Home DepotĀ®, has a free national in-store, consumer compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulb recycling program at all 1,973 The Home Depot locations. At each Home Depot store, customers can simply bring in any expired, unbroken CFL bulbs, and give them to the store associate behind the returns desk. The bulbs will then be managed responsibly by an environmental management company who will coordinate CFL packaging, transportation and recycling to maximize safety and ensure environmental safety.
If you try this and the associates know nothing about this..let me know.
