Everything that costs money (evermore, at that) will see people decline to pay in favour of saving the cost. This shouldn't cost the public money to do, it should be taken care of by the county.

I think it's true that not every landfill charges

Edit: op said they only charge for specific items at that location so it probably would've been free

We use a regional landfill and they charge your hometown. It’s only for hazardous waste so the town get pissed if you waste their money with insufficient items or something that can go in trash or recycling

But I still have old style fluorescent tubes in my basement. What do I do as they burn out and are replaced by LED? Because of mercury, trash won’t take them. However I’ll never have enough to make up for the $50 my town is charged. Plus the last thing I want to do is accumulate old tubes that will eventually get broken and contaminate my house

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

you should coordinate with your neighbors to consolidate the neighborhood output, which then can justify the town charge.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I’ve thought of that, and there already are versions of that - I’m pretty sure Scouts organizes one. However the result is me accumulating dead fluorescent tubes, oil based paint and insecticide. Then I forget about it and it may be years of accumulated hazards. I need to change that result
