Burned out and unneeded lamps may be handled either as hazardous waste or as recycled waste. If the lamp is sent to be recycled, the storage requirements before shipment are relaxed, compared to hazardous waste requirements.
Recycling is desirable for convenience sake as well as for conservation purposes.
Stores will pick up lamps to be stored on the first floor of Kenilworth until shipment. Please keep lamps of different sizes and shapes in separate boxes. Revenue generating departments are charged back for their contributions to the shipment. However, by combining shipments of the Union and Residence Life with the rest of campus, separate mobilization charges will be avoided. You may want to do a lamp count before pickup, or the contractor's count will be used to assess your charges.
