Where to Recycle Fluorescent Lightbulbs

Did you know Lowe’s recycles compact fluorescent light bulbs? Lowe’s also accepts plastic bags, rechargeable batteries, and cellphones!

Incandescent light bulbs are ok to throw in the trash with the other household items. They’re not considered hazardous waste, but it’s still a good idea to wrap them up in paper in case they break.

Fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) are another story. They should always be disposed of through a recycling facility. They contain mercury which is harmful to the environment. Find a Lowe’s near you.

Former Art Director for Home Magazine, Heather Leahy Zachariah, left her career in publishing after baby number number one. She now works from home as a freelance graphic designer and a chauffeur to her 3 busy kids. "Working on TipsFromTown has been a wonderful outlet for me. It renewed my love of publishing where I can design colorful, enticing pages online and allows me to share the things I love about being a mom." Heather grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a place that still is near and dear to her. " After living in Brooklyn for 18 years and studying Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, she now lives in the Jersey burbs. "I love living so close to NYC, but in my heart, I'm an Ohio girl."
