Info & Insights
Unfortunately, lighters are not recyclable due to the presence of lighter fluid or butane residue and the fact that the plastic itself is not one of the kinds that can be recycled.
If you are really hardcore, you can try take it apart and put the metal parts in the recycling bin like other small metal objects.
