How it works

How BulbCycle's program works

BulbCycle's comprehensive recycling program makes it easy to responsibly dispose of hazardous lighting waste including fluorescent lamps, LED bulbs, CFLs, ballasts, batteries, electronics, and mercury devices. Our four-step process ensures safe, compliant, and environmentally responsible recycling of your waste materials.

Select your kit

Browse and select the appropriate recycling kit for your specific waste disposal needs. BulbCycle offers specialized containers for fluorescent lamps, LED bulbs, CFLs, ballasts, batteries, electronics, mercury devices, and more.

Receive and fill with waste

After purchasing your recycling kit, you'll receive your UN-rated container within 6-11 business days. Fill the container at your own pace with your hazardous waste materials. Each kit includes all shipping fees, recycling costs, and a certificate of recycling. You have a full year to return the filled container.

Schedule pickup via FedEx

Once your recycling container is full and properly sealed, schedule a free FedEx pickup using the prepaid return shipping label included with your kit. Alternatively, drop off your sealed container at any FedEx location. Your filled container will be transported securely to one of BulbCycle's EPA-permitted recycling facilities located throughout the United States for proper processing and material recovery.

Request Certificate of Recycling

After your hazardous waste has been received and processed at our EPA-permitted facility, you can request your official certificate of recycling by logging into the secure website provided with your recycling kit. This certificate documents the proper disposal and environmental compliance of your waste materials. Please allow three weeks for processing and certificate generation.

What is a lead acid battery?

A lead acid battery is a heavy, rectangular battery, usually black or gray, most commonly recognized as the type used to start cars, trucks, boats, and motorcycles, though it also shows up in golf carts, forklifts, wheelchairs, and backup power systems for things like alarms or emergency lighting. It typically has a hard plastic casing with two terminals on top marked positive and negative, and it's noticeably heavy for its size because it's filled with lead plates and a liquid or gel electrolyte made of sulfuric acid. If you're looking to recycle one, treat it as hazardous waste rather than regular trash: don't puncture, crush, or throw it in the garbage, since the acid inside is corrosive and the lead is toxic to people and the environment. Instead, take it to an auto parts store, a battery retailer, or a local household hazardous waste facility, many of which accept them for free or even offer a small credit, since lead acid batteries are among the most recycled consumer products around, with the lead, plastic, and acid all reclaimed and reused in new batteries.
