Recycling CFL bulbs and other materials

Home Depot has a receptacle near the register near the exit for accepting used compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs). They have clear plastic bags near the container in which to put the expended CFLs. While we didn’t find information on the Home Depot web site about this program, the container was at the local store. Has anyone seen such a receptacle for used CFLs at any other stores?

Also, if anyone wants a review of the materials accepted in City of San Antonio curbside blue recycling carts, here’s a list of what’s acceptable and what’s not:

For materials the City doesn’t accept, but that are recyclable elsewhere in the area, there is a drop-down menu that will provide locations for recycling drop-off centers at
