Burned-out Christmas lights are being accepted for recycling at two depots in Prince George.

Both the Salvation Army's Curt Garland Community Support Centre, at 3500 18th Ave. and PG Recycling and Return-It Centre, 2614 Petersen Road, are taking them in on behalf of Product Care Recycling.

"When it comes to recycling Christmas lights, many of the components such as metal and plastic can be recycled and repurposed for other uses," the agency said in a press release.

The two locations also accept other kinds of lighting products for recycling ranging from fixtures to fluorescent tubes, halogen bulbs, CFLs and LEDs.
