Fluorescent Bulb & Lamp Recycling
Bulbs & Lamps have been around for many years. Recycling them has always been a necessary yet expensive system. Mercury is a toxic cancer causing element that helps power many of the lamps in use today. Though there is only a small amount inside of the tubes it is best to not break them or throw them away. We offer a low cost service for the bulbs that can be done by iteself or with our other services. 
SAVE $$$
If you already have a service for E-recycling, Data Destrcution or Junk removal, you will only be charged for the tubes! This especially great for our commercial clients who want to do a spring clean up and need someone as a one stop shop.
We can handle all labor
Many companies are fearful of handling the fluorescent bulbs in case they break. We can assist with some of the needof putting bulbs in boxes. We can also offer an hrly rate service for taking the old bulbs out of their housing and if needed install as well. 
How do you recycle?
AVA Recycling collects the bulbs and stores them till we have a load to fill a full truck. We then ship the Bulbs and Lamps to a facility to process mercury.
