Can I recycle it?
Lightbulbs are not collected as part of your recycling collection. You can take energy-saving lightbulbs and fluorescent tubes for recycling at all local Household Waste Recycling Centres except the site at Dudnance Lane, Pool.
Normal, old, and non-energy saving lightbulbs should be disposed of with your rubbish.
