Recycle HID Lighting
The ReStore now will recycle old HID lighting for free! Are you remodeling an old warehouse, school, or industrial building? Instead of incurring dumping fees or renting a dumpster to toss out those old HID lights, let the ReStore recycle them and turn it into revenue for Habitat for Humanity. Not only will you be preventing usable materials from ending up in landfills, but you can receive a tax receipt for your donation. It's a win-win! Simply call us at 414-257-9078 and we will arrange for a truck to come and pick up your HID lights at your location. It's that easy!
