Waste Management Inc. has launched a program for communities to recycle used compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) along with their residential recycling programs in four communities. The four communities are Rolling Estates, Calif.; Melbourne, Fla.; Palm Bay City, Fla.; and Brevard County, Fla.
Residents of the four communities will receive a Mercury VaporLok container that can store as many as 12 standard CFLs. When the bag is full, residents can call Waste Management to collect the container through their current curbside pickup service.
