IKEA takes CFLs.

Recycling Jackson has heard a few questions regarding compact flourescents - they do contain mercury, and aren't always easy to dispose of.

Then along came IKEA.

The Consumerist reports that the uber-furniture retailer is taking CFLs at all its giant locations.

Check out IKEA's website for details.

Here's IKEA's take on it:

Bring your used mercury containing lightbulbs to the IKEA store for free disposal. Since our CFL bulbs contain a small amount of mercury, they should not be simply tossed out. IKEA offers the perfect solution: a ‘Free Take Back’ program offering recycle bins in all IKEA stores.

So if you plan to shop for Swedish kitchen tables at Michigan's IKEA location, near Canton (and beware - the parking lot is nuts), be sure to take along your expired CFLs.
