Saturday November 7th and Sunday November 8th from 10am to 5pm (Hours may vary by store)
The Home Depot's Eco Options Holiday Light Exchange is back! We collected over 163,000 incandescent strings in 2008. That equates to a reduction of 2,380,156 kWh (enough electricity to power 213 homes for one year!) and 718 tonnes of greenhouse gases. Our goal is to collect even more incandescent light strings this year.
For each old incandescent holiday light string you bring to any Home Depot on November 7th and 8th between 10AM - 5PM (where open), you will receive an instant rebate coupon for 50% off of up to 5 new strings of energy efficient Seasonal L.E.D. lights.
You'll save energy and money this holiday season and you can rest assured that your old holiday lights will be responsibly recycled. Our recyclers are able to recycle up to 80% of each holiday light strings brought in. The old holiday light strings will be put through a wire chopping system and through air, gravity and sensory sorting all components will be separated. All copper and copper alloys will be sent for re-melt to copper and brass mills and all plastic, glass and any other waste will be sent for reprocessing resulting in new insulators for electrical wiring, plastic injection molding and in some cases, road fill and base.
