Recycle those CFLs

In response to the popularity of Compact Florescent Lightbulbs (CFLs), Charleston County now accepts CFLs for recycling at the following locations.
  • Bee’s Ferry Road Convenience Center, 1344 Bee’s Ferry Road, Charleston (West Ashley), S.C. 29414
  • Adams Run Convenience Center, 8326 Old Jacksonboro Road, S.C. 29426
  • Hollywood Convenience Center, 5305 Highway 165, Hollywood, S.C. 29449
  • Edisto Convenience Center, 2844 Highway 174, Edisto Island, S.C. 29438
  • Wadmalaw Convenience Center, 1558 Liberia Road, Wadmalaw Island, S.C. 29487
  • Charleston County Recycling Center, 13 Romney Street, Charleston, S.C. 29403
  • Maxville Road Convenience Center, 6380 Maxville Road, Awendaw, S.C. 29429
  • River Road Convenience Center, 1775 River Road, McClellanville, S.C. 29458
These additional eight locations are a great opportunity and add to the many locations you can recycle these major energy savers.  In addition to the County locations, Home Depot will also accept your spent bulbs.  Remember though that you can not recycle your bulbs in your biweekly pickup.

That is so awesome! I keep harping on about this little tidbit. So many people do not realize you have to recycle them. It should be the instruction that immediate follows the advice to use these CFLs.
