Light Bulb & Battery Takeback Program
zerowastemarin.org/residents/zero-waste-programs/bulb-battery-take-back-program
The Bulb and Battery Take-Back Program is designed to encourage Marin County residents to properly recycle their used household batteries, compact fluorescent lamps, and fluorescent tubes – free of charge – at convenient retail locations. Residents can simply drop these items off on their way to replace spent items.
This program is designed for Marin County residents only. Businesses should continue to dispose of their hazardous waste at the hazardous waste facilities in San Rafael or Novato.
Large quantities of bulbs and batteries should be delivered to the Marin Household Hazardous Waste Facility at Marin Sanitary Service in San Rafael; please call (415) 485-6806 for more information. Novato residents and businesses should take bulbs and batteries to the Novato Recycling and Buyback Center or the Novato Household Hazardous Waste Facility.
