RECYCLE AT IKEA
Please Recycle
Our old IKEA Catalog is so last year but, please don't trash it!
Keep it for decorating ideas or make sure to recycle it. Just bring it into the store on your next visit. We've placed a large box for recycling the '08 catalog in the Recycling Center by Return/Exchange Area.

As long as you're visiting the store, why not take care of the other recycling you need to do? IKEA takes back CFL bulbs, batteries and plastic bags for free. responsible recycling, even if you didn't buy them here. Our recycling station is located by Return & Exchanges.

It is just one of many sustainable solutions that IKEA is committed to:
-Buy a reusable Big Blue Bag for just 59 cents and use it every time you shop. If you opt for a regular plastic bag, you'll pay 5 cents byt we'll donate the entire nickel to American Forests to plant trees.
-A 3-pack of SPARSAM 11-watt energy saving bulbs is just $5.99!
Until further notice, IKEA has suspended the recycling service to take back used batteries. This is due to the challenges of a new regulation issued by the US Department of Transportation (US DOT) regarding the transport of batteries.
