How This Recycling System
Works:
-
Order a recycling kit online and wait for it to arrive via
UPS. You'll receive a box with hazardous waste bags to put
used light bulbs.
-
Secure the end of box with two or three inch wide tape.
Place spent bulbs in orange MDS bags, fold top of bag 2
times and seal end of bag with self sealing tape. This is
important as the bags will protect the bulbs in transit.
-
The RECYCLE KIT contains a (RED) prepaid shipping label. Do
not misplace this label as
FEDEX will not pickup box if missing.
-
Once the container is full, tape the box closed. Complete
senders address portion on ONE of the 4 shipping labels
depending on your state (SEE
ZONE CHART),
remove backing and
attach to end of box. Destroy all unused labels.
-
Call FedEx at 1(800) GO FEDEX They will pick-up the box and
deliver it to recycle center and a recycle certificate will
be issued upon receipt.
-
Now you can smile knowing that you prevented poisonous
mercury from entering the environment.

DO NOT PLACE MORE THAN 30 BULBS IN BOX REGARDLESS OF SIZE.
THE BOX IS DESIGNED TO ONLY HOLD 15 T-12 OR 30 T-8 LAMPS.

If lamp breakage should occur, place broken glass and bulb
constituents in MDS pouch provided and discard as hazardous
waste

Do not store box outdoors where it can be exposed to weather
