ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for safely disposing of fluorescent lamp tubes. The apparatus utilizes rapidly rotating chains to pulverize the tubes. The pulverizing mechanism is confined within an open-top container and suspended from a lid that covers the top of the container. The pulverized debris collects within the container. A plastic bag may line the interior of the container to facilitate disposal of the pulverized debris. A safety electrical switch is associated with the lid in a manner to prevent rotation of the chains if the lid is not properly seated upon the top of the container.
