caolewis Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Folks, I asked and was told to dump into garbage but I don't think it's a right thing to do due to mercury in bulb/lamp. Any where to dump them properly for evironment safe/green :-) in Beaverton/Oregon area? Thanks much, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gill Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 You should go to the Oregon City dump, they have a recycling center, best of all it's free. I had asked the same question a couple months back and Dsoz told me about this place :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bicyclebill Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 The other one is over in NW Industrial area out past St Johns Bridge. Much closer for Beaverton, and a nice drive out 185th and Germantown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackaninny Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Call the Metro Hotline - I'm sure they can locate the nearest recycler for that material - 503-234-3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
