Fluorescent tubes are classified as hazardous because they contain mercury and phosphor. These substances must be carefully removed during recycling to avoid environmental harm, which is why licensed handling is essential.

If possible, store fluorescent tubes in their original boxes or in a secure place where they won’t be damaged. Don’t worry if they’re unboxed, as our team can safely collect them following approved handling techniques.

We provide lamp coffins and secure storage containers for Croydon businesses that regularly produce fluorescent tube waste. These make on-site storage safer and simplify ongoing waste management.

Once they’ve been collected, all of your fluorescent tubes will be sent to a licensed recycling facility, where mercury and phosphor are removed under controlled conditions. The remaining glass and metal from the tubes are separated and recycled into new products.

You’ll receive a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note once your fluorescent tube clearance has been delivered. This document confirms that your lighting waste was collected and processed in accordance with UK waste management legislation.

We are licensed waste carriers under registration number CBDU117809. You can verify our credentials using the official government register here:
