A dead CFL bulb to the local hardware store, which accepts them. This wasn't the last CFL in my house - there seems to be a box in the basement of carefully wrapped and labeled bulbs, I'm not sure what's up with that - but it might have been the last one deployed anywhere.
The hardware store used to also take button batteries, but apparently the town told them to stop and button batteries are just supposed to go in regular trash now? But the town website doesn't say that, and I think some of them have lithium (every bit we can recycle could help to offset mining?) or mercury (let's keep that shit out of the incinerator). So, 19 assorted button batteries to Staples, who claimed they do recycle them.
