Lowe's Recycling Centres

Don’t throw it out. Bring it in.

As a company, Lowe’s is committed to minimizing the impact we have on the environment. That’s why we’re proud to offer free recycling services for potentially harmful household waste items, such as dry-cell batteries, rechargeable batteries, CFL bulbs and paints. Ultimately, our goal is to help make sure that none of these items end up in landfills where they can negatively impact the environment. Join us in building a better planet by bringing us the following recyclables.

Used Paint Collection
Don't leave a mark on the environment. Let us properly recycle your old latex, oil and solvent-based paints and coatings, including: tinted or un-tinted stains and primer, paints and coatings for household use, and paints in aerosol containers.*
*Please note that we cannot accept paints containing pesticides, containers exceeding 30-litres in volume, and bitumen-based driveway/roof coatings and sealers.

Compact Fluorescent Light (CFL) Bulbs
Here's a bright idea. Bring your used CFL bulbs to Lowe's, where we'll dispose of them safely. Since they contain mercury, CFL bulbs should never be thrown out with regular household waste. Just bring your used bulbs into any Lowe's and simply deposit them in our recycling bin.*
*Please note that light sources such as halogens, incandescent bulbs, spotlights, and High Intensity Discharge lamps cannot be accepted.

Single Use-Dry Cell Batteries
At our Ontario stores only, you can bring in your old lithium primary batteries, household primary batteries (AA, AAA, 9V, etc.), and button cells (such as those sold in hearing aids, watches, etc.).

Rechargeable Batteries
Take positive action. Bring us your used rechargeable batteries and we'll ensure they're properly recycled. We can accept the following battery types: Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd), Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH), Lithium Ion (Li-Ion), Nickel Zinc (Ni-Zn), and Small Sealed Lead (SSLA/Pb).
