In Nevada, the management of universal waste, including fluorescent and LED lamps, is governed by regulations aligned with federal guidelines to ensure safe handling and disposal. The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) enforces these regulations, covering wastes such as batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing devices, and electric lamps. These measures aim to streamline waste management practices and promote recycling efforts.
Fluorescent lamps, commonly used in various settings, contain mercury—a hazardous substance that necessitates careful disposal. The NDEP highly recommends recycling these lamps to prevent environmental contamination, and many facilities across the state are required to do so. In Nevada, crushing fluorescent bulbs is permitted, provided it is conducted in a controlled manner to prevent mercury vapor release. This practice reduces storage space and recycling costs, facilitating more efficient waste management.
LED lamps, while free of mercury, may contain other hazardous materials such as lead in their circuit boards, classifying them as universal waste. Proper disposal of LED lamps is crucial to prevent environmental harm. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) encourages the recycling of LED lamps under the universal waste rule, simplifying the process for businesses and households.
For businesses generating universal waste in Nevada, the Southern Nevada Health District oversees permitting and compliance within Clark County. Facilities must obtain the appropriate permits and adhere to specific guidelines to manage such wastes effectively. Regular inspections ensure compliance with regulations, safeguarding public health and the environment.

Why recycle?
Fluorescent and LED bulbs are commonly used in homes, businesses, and industries across Nevada, but their disposal can pose a significant environmental challenge.
Proper recycling of fluorescent and LED bulbs is crucial to prevent harmful chemicals, such as mercury, from leaking into the environment and to reduce landfill waste. At BulbCycle, we make recycling fluorescent, CFL, LED bulbs and more! easy and safe. If you’re wondering, “How do I dispose of fluorescent bulbs near me?” or “Where to recycle LED bulbs in Nevada?”—you’ve come to the right place.
Why is Recycling Fluorescent & LED Bulbs Important?
Recycling fluorescent and LED bulbs properly is vital for several key reasons:
Protecting the Environment
Fluorescent bulbs, including compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), contain mercury, a toxic substance that can contaminate soil and water if disposed of improperly. Recycling these bulbs prevents mercury from ending up in landfills and leaching into the environment.
Reducing Hazardous Waste
LED bulbs, while not as hazardous as fluorescent bulbs, still contain electronic components that need to be handled responsibly. Recycling both fluorescent and LED bulbs ensures that toxic materials are properly separated and do not contribute to hazardous waste buildup.
Resource Recovery
Fluorescent and LED bulbs contain valuable materials like glass, metals, and phosphor coatings that can be reused in the production of new bulbs or other products. Recycling helps conserve natural resources by reducing the need for virgin materials.
Nevada Regulations
Nevada has strict laws about the disposal of universal waste, including fluorescent and LED bulbs. Under the state’s hazardous waste regulations, these items must not be thrown away with regular trash. Recycling helps residents and businesses comply with the law and avoid fines.
