Strings of unwanted Christmas lights may be dropped-off for recycling through January 31st. Residents may place strings of lights in the specially-marked, blue, outdoor collection box at the Macon County Environmental Management Recycling Center at 1750 N. 21st St., Decatur.
Residents may drop-off both working and non-working strings of lights. Bulbs do not need to be removed from strands of lights to be recycled but all packaging and any other attachments such as hangers, garland or decorations should be removed before dropping-off.
Questions may be directed to the Macon County Environmental Management Department at 217-425-4505.
