Lamp Recycling Program
Vermonters buy over a million energy-efficient fluorescent bulbs every year. Fluorescent bulbs contain mercury. When they are thrown in the
trash, mercury is released into the environment and ends up in the fish we eat. Mercury containing bulbs, by Vermont law, cannot be placed
in the regular trash but instead must be recycled.
hardware stores have teamed up with the state of Vermont to offer
free recycling for Vermont residents of up to six fluorescent
and other mercury-containing bulbs per visit.
Note: Broken bulbs are not accepted at these locations. If you have
questions regarding this program contact the Mercury Hotline at 1-800-974-9559 (dial 1).
What kinds of bulbs contain mercury?
- 8' or 4' linear fluorescent bulbs
- Compact fluorescent bulbs
- Linear fluorescent bulbs such as - tanning bulbs, grow bulbs,
black lights and smaller (12", 18", 24" etc.) bulbs
- U-tubes
- Circular fluorescent bulbs
- HID car headlights (appear blue when lit)
- High Intenisty Discharge (HID) bulbs (such as: mercury vapor,
metal halide, etc.)
