Darn, you should try to get some of the old lights!

+1 on saving the old lights.

It's not always easy to save old lights unfortunately. Some utility companies just throw them in box cars which aren't accessible.

Does yours do that? What happens to them later? I know some times it can be hard, but it is worth it in the end. Wink

at work here, we just take them down and into the streetlight dumpster they go. where from there, I have no idea. I throw away good lights all the time and it kills me but its part of my job and I don't want to get in trouble by taking all the lights I throw away.

@ gailgrove A lady in charge of the main warehouse at Duquesne Light in Pittsburgh told me four years ago that they don't accept streetlights at the warehouse anymore and that they're loaded up into box cars. The lights are scrapped too.
