How Our Fluorescent Tube Disposal Service In Southend-on-Sea Works

Your fluorescent tube collection will begin with our operatives arriving at your site to load all your lighting waste securely. Once they’ve been collected, your tubes will be transported to a licensed recycling facility, where all elements of mercury and phosphor are removed as part of the hazardous waste treatment process. Reusable materials, including glass and aluminium, are then sorted and recycled through approved channels.

We manage all major types of lighting waste, such as:

✔️ T5, T8, and T12 fluorescent tubes
✔️ Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs)
✔️ UV and germicidal tubes
✔️ Circular fluorescent lamps
✔️ Coated and shatterproof tubes
✔️ Large fittings and commercial lighting units

Yes Waste supported our Southend office during a large lighting upgrade, and their organisation and attention to detail were impressive. They navigated the site efficiently and ensured every lamp was processed through compliant channels. We received all necessary paperwork immediately after completion.

A major refurbishment left us with a large volume of fluorescent waste, and Yes Waste handled the entire removal process without disrupting our daily operations. Their operatives were professional, efficient, and respectful of our working environment. We’ll continue using their service.

Fluorescent lamps contain mercury and phosphor, which are legally recognised as hazardous materials. These substances must be managed through specialist recycling facilities to ensure full compliance and protect the environment.

If you can, keep your tubes in their original boxes or just in a secure area that prevents breakage. Even if your lighting waste is loose or damaged, our operatives can still collect and process it safely.

Businesses producing lighting waste routinely can be provided with lamp coffins and secure storage containers if necessary. These containers offer compliant interim storage between scheduled fluorescent tube collections.

All of your fluorescent tube waste will be transported to a licensed recycling facility for proper treatment. Hazardous elements are removed safely, while recyclable materials such as metals and glass are processed responsibly.

At the end of your fluorescent lamp waste clearance, we’ll provide you with a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note. This document confirms how your tubes were handled and provides full compliance evidence for your records.
