March is Compact Florescent Recycling Month at Build It Green!
Thats right, thanks to a newly acquired "COM PAK" Compact Florescent (CFL) Drop-off box from the Green Action Project you can bring your depleted bulbs right down to the warehouse and we will recycle them FREE OF CHARGE. Clear your eco-conscience while you shop!
As of now, we only have the mini recycling center until it fills up, but you can also bring your CFLs to any Home Depot retail operation, or a NY Department of Sanitation drop-off point.
Check out NYC Wasteless for more info on CFLs and their powers of efficiency.
