CFL Take It Back Campaign

The purpose of this project is:

  • To provide education and outreach regarding the need for recycling of Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs), while promoting the energy efficiency benefits of using CFL bulbs.

  • To make it convenient to recycle by setting up business locations where Butte County residents can simply drop off their CFL bulbs for proper recycling.
Please explore our site to find more information, including the drop off locations in Butte County.
