networks use SIM cards. If you are not sure if your phone uses a SIM card or if
you need assistance removing your SIM card contact your wireless provider.

CFL’s
– Go to “Fluorescent Light Bulbs” on this list.
________________________________________________________________________________
Christmas Trees
– Your artificial Christmas Trees cannot be recycled; it must be disposed of with
your trash. If you used a live cut Christmas Tree you may have several options:
Ask if there is a hauling/composting option through your city or village.
Remember to remove all ornaments, tinsel, lights, and decorative materials
including the tree stand.
Ask your trash hauler if they provide live tree pickup after the holiday season.
Ask your local Christmas tree grower if they will accept your tree for mulch or
other disposal.
If you know someone with a chipper, they may be willing to chip your tree into
mulch for your garden. Pine needles are a great mulching source to help acidify
soils for potatoes and blueberries. For non acidic plants, you may need to apply
garden lime on the mulch to counteract the acidity.
If you own a fish pond, trees make an excellent refuge and feeding area for fish.
Never sink your tree into a pond without permission from the property owner.
A Christmas tree positioned in your garden or backyard can be used as a bird
feeder and a safe shelter for birds and other wildlife. Please make sure all
decorations, hooks, garland or tinsel strands are removed so as not to injure the
birds or other wildlife. Within a year the tree branches become brittle enough to
break up the tree by hand for use on your property.
NEVER burn your Christmas tree in a fireplace or wood stove. Burning pine trees
may contribute to creosote buildup and could cause a chimney fire.

sought by architects, salvagers, artists, crafters and gardeners.
Glass windows & mirrors can be disposed of in landfills.
Because window glass has different additives and melting temps, it CANNOT be
collected with the glass jars and bottles for recycling.
Helium Tanks
Balloon Helium Tanks are designed to be disposable, although some stores may accept
them for recycling. Scrap dealers usually do not accept them due to serious safety
issues from unused helium. Please always follow the safety instructions/directions on
the tanks as they can be an explosive hazard if any helium remains in the tank when
compacted in a trash truck or cut for recycling.
Ink/Toner Cartridges
Most office supply chain stores take back the printer ink cartridges. Check with your
local Office Depot, Staples, Office Max and local office supply stores. Some even offer
rewards points towards next purchase for the returns.
Or try Product Company’s with return programs:
EPSON - go to www.epson.com and search for “ink toner recycling” or call 866-917-
5033.
LEXMARK - www.lexmark.com
QUILL – www.quill.com (has a earning program for recycling toner cartridges)
Mattresses & Box springs

cannot be compacted and little weight in comparison to the airspace they take up
landfills may charge to accept them or not take them at all.

PAINT
Any Paints made before 1990 should be stored and brought to our next
Household Hazardous Waste Collection (with lids on tight). Paints made
before 1977 may contain lead and Paints made before 1990 may contain mercury.
All other paints can be allowed to dry completely and then can be disposed of
in your regular garbage.
Hints to dry:
LATEX – IF “almost empty” remove lid and allow to air dry, you may add clay-based
kitty litter or commercial paint dryer, mix and allow to air dry ~ this may take a couple
of days or more and should be done in a well-ventilated area away from children and
pets. Check with our offices for any Special Paint Collections!!
OIL BASED PAINT – take trash bag & place crumpled newspapers inside, drizzle
paint over newspapers, continue with layers until can is empty. This allows for
increase surface area and paint will dry. After drying, put can in trash bag, close
trash bag and put out with regular garbage.
You may also try quick dry products for oil spills sold at local Auto part stores to speed
drying process of paint.
