Safe and Legal Fluorescent Lamp Disposal
Throwing fluorescent lamps in regular trash violates California environmental regulations.
We remove and dispose of all fluorescent lamps in a California-approved, environmentally safe manner.
Fluorescent lamps contain small amounts of mercury and must not be thrown in the regular trash. Doing so is a violation of California environmental regulations and can lead to harmful contamination. Don’t take the risk of your contractor improperly disposing of them in your trash—this could leave you liable for the violation. As part of our lighting upgrade services, we ensure all fluorescent lamps are removed and disposed of in a California-approved manner. Our electrician follows all required procedures for safe handling and recycling, protecting both your home and the environment.
