As you and your family decorate your home this year, you may need to get rid of broken or unwanted holiday lights. Now, you can recycle these lights for free! Rather than tossing them in the trash, these lights can be stripped for their valuable metals and recycled, keeping them out of the landfill.
All types of string lights are accepted, including icicles and LEDs. The bulbs can be left on the string. Drop them off for no charge at any of the following locations:
Buckman Road Recycling and Transfer Station (BuRRT) – 2600 Buckman Road, Santa Fe
Capital Scrap Metal Inc – 1162 Cooks Lane, Santa Fe. Capital Scrap will pay $0.80 per pound.
City of Santa Fe, Environmental Services Division – 1142 Siler Road, Santa Fe
County Transfer Stations – All transfer stations are accepting lights.
