How to Recycle LED Bulbs

LED light bulbs are designed to last, but in the event that yours burns out, recycling furthers the initiative toward a greener environment.

Energy efficiency is an imperative part of the initiative toward a greener & more stable environment. Many households and businesses have made the switch to LED (light-emitting diode) light bulbs to decrease their energy use and monthly electrical costs. High quality LED light bulbs have an average life expectancy of 50,000 hours, while the life expectancy of an incandescent bulb is only about 1,200 hours and compact florescent (CFL) bulbs last for about 8,000 hours. Unlike CFL bulbs, LED bulbs don't contain mercury, so recycling them is easier and safer.
