Bring your fluorscents to Moderate Risk Waste Facility

After a short hiatus, the Chelan County Moderate Risk Waste Facility is taking fluorescent bulbs again.

There are no limits on the number of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) you can bring in one trip. However, visitors are limited to 15 pin-based or linear fluorescent lamps and up to two high-intensity discharge (HID) bulbs in one trip.

The Mercury Lamp Recyclers Association has taken over administration of the LightRecycle Washington program, which means we are able to collect the bulbs again now that we have a place to take them.

The MRWF is 3612 Hwy 97A in Wenatchee. It is open for drop-off 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and also the first Saturday of the month. Drop-Off Saturdays may be moved a week if a holiday falls on the same date.
