Motel 6 Launches National Fluorescent Light Bulb and Battery Recycling Program
Motel 6, with nearly 900 properties across the country, has rolled out what it says is the first national fluorescent light bulb and battery recycling program within the hospitality industry.
The program will be rolled out regionally over a six-month period, with complete implementation expected by the end of 2007. This recycling policy is a continuation of Accor’s Earth Guest initiatives.
Accor partnered with Oakleaf, who will oversee the program, and Veolia Environmental Services, who manufactures and recycles the light bulbs and batteries.
