Residential customers can easily recycle CFLs from home by using RECYCLEPAK containers from Veolia Environmental Services. The RECYCLEPAK program allows customers to order a CFL recycling kit online, including the recycling container, a protective polyliner, instructions, and prepaid return shipping to Veolia. Once the container is filled with old CFLs, the customer can now mail the package back to Veolia via a USPS office or any USPS letter carrier. Learn more here.
A standard CFL RECYCLEPAK holds 12 small and 6-8 medium sized CFLs and costs $15-$20. However, Veolia also offers a variety of container options including a "community pail" which can hold up to 50lbs of CFL bulbs and costs $80.
For more information or to order a RECYCLEPAK, visit Sylvania* or Veolia ES.
*If you are looking to purchase new CFLs to replace the old, Sylvania is currently offering a $1 off coupon toward the purchase of Sylvania Energy Star CFLs. Visit their site and click on the coupon icon to redeem the savings.
