Most holiday light collection bins are indoors and only available for drop-off during business hours, which may be different during the holidays. Don’t see your town? Check with your local government for additional locations or bring them to SCARCE. We take lights year-round!
Most community recycling events are drive through recycling and reuse events for residents. Check the list of accepted items and load up your car. Events are typically hosted by the local community or a community organization and are held on Saturday mornings in the spring and fall. Would your community like to host a recycling event?
