Those broken holiday lights can be recycled in Springfield

Broken holiday lights? The City of Springfield has a recycling program.

No matter what holiday they are from, drop the unwanted lights off in boxes in the Lincoln Library lobby and the Municipal Center West Building, 300 S. 7th Street.

This event is hosted by BLH Computers and donated proceeds go to Rotary Club of Springfield Sunrise.

The program runs through January 2, 2026.
