Batteries, lamps, ballasts and computer equipment may contain mercury, lead and other heavy metals, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) or battery acid, all of which are considered toxic and hazardous to human health and the environment. The federal government and all 50 states have enacted rules and regulations to manage the recycling and disposal of these materials. Failure to comply with these regulations puts you and your company at risk. Veolia Environmental Services has developed solutions for large or small quantities of lighting and electronic waste. Our recycling programs are designed to allow for safe and economical recycling of these toxic and hazardous materials in compliance with federal and state regulations.
