welcome to christmas light recycling!
(& extension cords!)

This is one of our biggest events of the year! 
We see a lot of Christmas lights and extension cords come in through the recycling stream, 
but they get SO tangled up in equipment. 
They cause massive delays because we have to stop operations and go in to cut them out.

You can only recycle lights at the locations listed below!
​

Drop off locations

This event starts on November 1st and ends January 31st.
