Cohen makes it simple to recycle your unwanted or non-working decorative lights. Join us and our local partners this year in keeping lights out of landfills and reducing waste as you celebrate the holidays.

DROP OFF LIGHTS DEC 1 - FEB 1
Cohen has partnered with local organizations to make it simple for area residents to recycle their unwanted or non-working decorative lights. The 2020-2021 holiday season was brought us the most lights and the most participating locations ever!

The 2020-21 event brought in 26,475 pounds of lights!
The 2021-22 event begins collecting lights on Dec. 1. In the meantime, you can recycle string lights at any Cohen Recycling Center.

All kinds of string lights are accepted during this event, including traditional and LED-style bulbs. Other electric holiday yard decorations, such as a projector or the motor on an inflatable character, may be recycled at a Cohen Recycling Center – visit the Find a Location page and call ahead for more information on recycling these items.

PLEASE, NO BOXES, BAGS, OR BATTERIES
You can help streamline the recycling process by including ONLY lights (no other recyclables or scrap), removing any batteries, and taking your boxes, bags and other containers back with you. We appreciate your help!
