Home>Blinky Bulb recycling program
| Blinky Bulb is a new recycling program for compact fluorescent tubes and globes. Fluorescent tubes (conventional and compact) contain mercury, a valuable but very toxic heavy metal. Mercury is the most toxic pollutant, after radioactive substances, on the Environment Protection Authority’s list of industrial pollutants.
To keep mercury out of our environment, we are pleased to offer a new recycling program for your tubes and globes. Please make sure that you deliver your tubes and globes to the drop off points intact (do not take broken tubes or globes to collection points).
Collection points around the Central Murray Region include:
Buloke Shire:
Birchip Landfill
Donald Landfill
Donald Learning Centre
Charlton Landfill
Charlton Foodworks
Wycheproof Landfill
Sea Lake Transfer Station
Loddon Shire:
