Do you use LED light bulbs in your home? If not, trade in your old bulbs for energy efficient LEDs to save energy, save money, and lower your carbon footprint. City of Ventura residents can trade in old light bulbs, including incandescent or CFLs, for LED bulbs (limit 5 LED bulbs per household).
If you do not currently use LEDs, you probably have incandescent bulbs or Compact Fluorescent Lightbulbs (CFLs) in your home. Incandescent bulbs use a lot of energy to generate heat and light, and CFLs contain mercury, which is hazardous waste and cannot be disposed of in the trash. All types of lightbulbs will be accepted for proper disposal at this event, but please note, only one type of lightbulb will be offered: LED 9 watt A19 bulb, 800 lumens, warm appearance (2700 K).
