Mail in Your Pre-Paid Universal Waste Recycling Containers for Auto-Reorder

Monday, October 24, 2016
Facility managers – what’s on your to-do list for the end of the year? Now is best time to determine if you are ready to return your Universal Waste container. If you’re a member of our nationwide mail-in recycling program, you can easily mail in your EasyPak containers using your pre-paid UPS label. Did you also know that automatic container reorder is also an option? You will never have to remember to re-order replacement containers when you sign up for our program.

With EasyPak, recycling your universal waste is simple. One price includes everything you need: the container, shipping to our permitted recycling centers, and instant online and downloadable recycling reports.

How does the EasyPak mail-in recycling program work?

  1. Order as many containers as your need for your facility. Whether you’re recycling intact fluorescent lamps, ballasts, batteries, electronics, or thermostats, the more you buy, the more you save.
  2. The EasyPak containers will be shipped to you with a return UPS shipping label and instructions.
  3. Once the container is full, tape the box closed or seal the lid on the bucket, attach the supplied shipping label with your facility’s name and address, and it is automatically shipped it to the recycling center closest to you for processing.
  4. Access online Certificates of Recycling and reports.
  5. Reorder EasyPak products or sign up for our Auto Reorder program.

How does our Auto Reorder program work?


Automatic re-ordering is available exclusively at www.lamprecycling.com. When you return a full container to the pre-assigned recycling facility, a replacement container of the same type will automatically be reordered and shipped to your facility. Our container tracking software is available around the clock online, enabling managers “cradle to grave” access for container status.


How safe is the packaging of intact fluorescent lamps to ensure safe delivery to the recycling facility?


At Air Cycle, our products and services are designed to increase workplace safety and efficiency. You can ensure the safety of not only your employees, but the carriers who will handle your EasyPak VaporShield® containers. Our VaporShield® containers have been engineered to provide protection from mercury vapors due to accidental breakage.

OSHA Compliance for Your Lamp Recycling Program

Tuesday, October 4, 2016
There is no issue more important, or more challenging to facility managers than safety within their operations. Did you know that President Obama signed legislation allowing a 150% increase in maximum penalties associated with regulatory citations?  According to Facilities Management Decisions, this could mean that a minor to serious violation could jump from $7,000 to $12,500 in fines, or from $70,000 to $125,000 for repeat of willful violations.
