Sussex County Municipal Utilities Authority presents "LIGHTS OUT" Fluorescent Lamp Collection Program. Help protect the environment by disposing of fluorescent lamps properly. Residents and businesses can bring intact lamps to the Convenience Center for collection. Up to 10 lamps can be dropped off at the SCMUA Convenience Center. Larger quantities require information on Universal Waste processing facilities. Compact and other fluorescent bulbs can be taken to Home Depot or Lowe’s at no cost or held for the next Household Hazardous Waste Day. Broken lamps can release mercury and contaminants, so proper disposal is necessary. For more information, call 973-579-6998 or visit www.scmua.org
