We take all style of lamp and fluoresent bulbs: incandescent, fluoresent,metal halide,neon,high-intensity discharge(HID),high-pressure sodium,mercury-vapor and LED lamp.
Lamps can contain mercury,lead,cadmium and barium, which are toxic chemicals that can accumulate in living tissuse and cause health problems. A small amount of mercury is needed in all fluorscent and HID lamps to make the lamp work. When a lamp breaks or is thrown away in a solid waste landfill or incinerator, the mercury can contaminate air, soil, surface water, and ground water.
Even non-hazardous lamps have mercury, lead, and cadmium that can harm the environment. The EPA has deemed that lamps are a hazardous waste and should be disposed of properly or stiff fines are posed on companys and small businesses.
Westlynn Enterprises will give you a certificate of destruction and properly dispose of these toxic lamps along with coming and getting the lamps for safe hauling.
