This has become an issue ... how do you dispose of your old lamps?

At one stage there was a drum at one of the wholesalers and you could just drop them off ... I was told it got too expensive.

I am starting to wonder if it shouldn't be the responsibility of the companies who made these lamps to dispose of them in a safe manner ... they made them they should have a facility to dispose of them.

We use to have great fun throwing them into the bins and watch how they explode ... now I am reading that the mercury content is hectic and dangerous ... we talking 100 plus lamps a day ... back when lamping every 5 years was a big thing.

The big question how dangerous?
