Residents actively participating in recycling old Christmas lights at Monterrey Metal Recycling Solutions.
After the holiday season, San Antonio residents are encouraged to recycle their broken or unwanted Christmas lights at Monterrey Metal Recycling Solutions. This initiative not only reduces waste but also repurposes valuable materials, like copper. Residents can drop off their old lights conveniently at Monterrey’s facility or at a special recycling drive on January 8th at Kelly Academy. Participating helps the community become greener while potentially earning some cash.
The holiday season may have wrapped up, but your broken or unwanted Christmas lights don’t have to be tossed into the trash! Monterrey Metal Recycling Solutions in San Antonio is stepping up, offering a fantastic opportunity for residents to recycle their old lights and even earn some cash in the process.
Many of us love decorating our homes with cheerful lights during the holiday season, but what happens when those lights stop working? Instead of throwing them away, which contributes to waste in landfills, why not recycle them? The materials in Christmas lights—including glass, metal, and plastic—can take years to decompose if sent to a landfill. By choosing to recycle, you’re actively helping to reduce pollution and repurpose these materials for other uses.
Those twinkling lights are made with precious materials, especially copper, which can bring value when recycled. The team at Monterrey Metal Recycling is inviting everyone to gather their broken strings of lights and head over to their facility, where you can turn your trash into treasure!
Bringing in your non-working lights is as simple as can be! There’s no need for fancy appointments—just drop by Monterrey Metal Recycling Solutions located at 2300 Frio City Road. You can even bring your lights with the bulbs still attached. The experts there will process everything to ensure that as much as possible is recycled. However, it’s important to note that rope lights, greenery, and loose bulbs aren’t accepted, so keep those at home!
Those broken Christmas lights can’t be popped into your blue recycling bin at home. They often cause chaos at recycling centers, so bringing them directly to Monterrey Metal for special processing is the best way to handle them.
Mark your calendars for January 8th! Monterrey Metal Recycling is hosting a special recycling drive at Kelly Academy from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. This event is a perfect opportunity for you to gather your unwanted lights and bring them to a convenient location.
If January 8th doesn’t work for you, don’t worry. You can still take your old lights over to Monterrey’s main location to ensure they don’t end up polluting the environment. It’s all about making our community cleaner and greener!
Just remember, when you transport that brush load, San Antonio’s tarp law states that everything must be covered to avoid potential fines, so prepare to keep your truck or trailer tidy!
Embracing the spirit of recycling can make a world of difference for our planet, so take a little time to gather those broken lights and get them to Monterrey Metal Recycling Solutions or to the upcoming drive. Every bit counts towards a cleaner landscape, and you might even pocket a little cash while you’re at it! Let’s make San Antonio a greener place, one light at a time!
