I've been reading a bit about this to see if anything had changed. Apparently they're still considered hazardous waste since they contain mercury (along with mercury thermometers).
Here's one site about it:
http://www.mass.gov/dep/files/lamps.htm
http://www.mass.gov/dep/files/flampbiz.htm .
It doesn't state when the info was last updated. I hate that. A couple articles I read on the epa site were from '97.
Who actually takes their bulbs to a hazardous waste collection site?
