LIGHT BULB RECYCLING

As one of the first fluorescent lamp recyclers in the U.S., Recycle Technologies has been a leader in light bulb processing since 1993. With the rise of LED technology, lamp recycling has reached an all-time high. Whether you’re a business or an environmentally conscious homeowner, choosing a responsible recycler is essential.

Unlike brokers, we handle the entire recycling process ourselves—there’s no middleman. Your items are processed directly at one of our Midwest facilities, never outsourced or sent to a landfill.

Most importantly, we ensure responsible recycling. Our team, facilities, and vehicles are fully certified in handling Universal Waste, guaranteeing compliance with recycling regulations. You can trust us to manage your bulb recycling with complete transparency, eliminating any concerns about your own policies and procedures.

At Recycle Technologies, we call it Recycling Done Right—and we certify it for you every time!

DOT requires careful packaging of bulbs for transport. The best method to package your used light bulbs is to use one of our fiber bins. If you do not have one of our bins, you can reuse the boxes your replacement bulbs came in.

Recycle Technologies can deliver packing materials to customers prior to pick up; let us help provide you with all your Universal Waste packaging needs. Contact us today!
