Hi
I am trying to recycle long fluorescent lighting tubes. I have called and visited the local Home depot and Lowes, But both do not accept the long tube lighting. Does anyone know where I could recycle them around the Boston/ I-95 belt area?
Thanks

Hi, I’m a student working for my father’s company and we install audio and video equipment. Now I know that our waste could be divided into many categories, but I don’t know where the bulk of it should be disposed of. This bulk consists of old speakers, amplifiers, and similar electronics (some dating back 20 or 30 years). As well as this we dispose of a lot of wire, cardboard, and styrofoam. Any sort of recycling area suggestion would be better than the standard dumpster we have used for so long. Thank you.

P.S. eastern Middlesex County area

I am trying to recycle old VHS tapes in the Quincy, MA area.
It seems as though they only have places in FL or CA.
I would even donate them if I knew where. Thanks

I am trying to find out how to recycle a bulb for a projector (Hg-Lamp); I accessed http://www.lamprecycle.org, which led me here, but when I enter Hg-Lamp or just lamp, I get nothing for the 01752 area. Is there anywhere I can send this? Thank you.

I’d like to know where to recylce ball point pens, sharpies, highlighters and items similar. The plastic covering should be able to be reused, but I’m more concerned about the ink inside that could leach out and other toxins. ANY IDEAS!

I have used a systemic insect control “BONIDE”. I have both the diluent that’s left from an application and the concentrate. How and where can these be disposed of safely? I live on the south shore in Massachusetts.
