Fluorescent Lightbulbs

Compact fluorescent light bulbs should not be thrown into the trash because they contain mercury. Wrap them carefully in a paper towel and place them in a shoe box and transport them to the nearest hazardous waste facility. If you must throw them in the trash can, place them in several sealed bags. Click here to find out the nearest drop off location
