Recycling 4 ft Fluorescent tube lights
Trying to do my part to save the environment and properly recycle about 10 4ft fluorescent bulbs. Anybody know a place I can recycle them for free or at least super cheap? Big box stores only take the CFLs. Recycling centers around me all charge more that I am willing to pay.
Try your local Ace Hardware. I think they took mine last year.

If you love your freedom, thank a veteran. If you love to party, thank the Beastie Boys. They fought for that right.
When I worked for Home Depot, every store had a specific place to put old fluorescent lamps for recycling. But I don't know that they'll take them from customers.

It's all shits and giggles until someone giggles and shits.....
If they ?accidentally? get broken they are no longer eligible to be recycled and you can just dispose of them in the trash.
Residents of Boulder and Broomfield Counties can drop them off for free at the Boulder EcoCycle location, everyone else is $35. Does Arvada or Jefferson County have a recycle center?

Batteries plus will take them, for a large fee. Or at least I thought it was a large fee.... I did read that if they are broken, you can double bag them, and place in trash.

Me and my buddies used to ride our bikes around office/ warehouse complexes, dumpster diving. It was always fun to find a bunch of them and have sword fights.
Just thinking about it makes my eyes itchy...
Many counties have a hazmat drop off as well. They often take things like this and other household hazmat for free from their citizens.
The one down here in El Paso will take them. Doesn?t help OP, but maybe someone else in the future.
