How and Where Can I Recycle CFLs?
Contact your local waste collection agency by visiting Earth911.com . Many counties and cities have household hazardous waste drop-off locations and/or curbside and other special collection programs. To find locations where you can drop off bulbs, and when and where a collection may be held in your area, contact your local waste collection agency directly by visiting Earth911.com . Note that waste collection agencies:

◦provide services that are usually free, though some may charge a small fee.
◦sometimes collect household hazardous wastes only once or twice a year, so residents will have to hold on to their light bulbs until the collection takes place. Other collection agencies provide collection services throughout the year.
◦may also collect paints, pesticides, cleaning supplies or batteries.
◦usually accept waste only from residents, although some collection programs include small businesses as well.
