We provide fluorescent tube collection and disposal services for organisations across Middlesbrough carrying bulk lighting waste loads. Fluorescent lamps and tubes contain small quantities of mercury and phosphor, both of which are classed as hazardous waste. These must be removed and processed by a licensed waste carrier to ensure a compliant disposal process.

Every fluorescent tube collection we undertake meets the standards set out by:

✅ The Hazardous Waste Regulations
✅ The Environmental Protection Act
✅ The WEEE Directive

How Our Fluorescent Tube Disposal Service In Middlesbrough Works

We’ll begin your waste lighting clearance by collecting all of your fluorescent tubes from your site, ensuring they’re carefully loaded and secured for transport. Your waste is then taken to a licensed recycling facility for processing. Here, all mercury and phosphor elements are safely extracted, and all recyclable materials such as glass and aluminium are recovered for reuse.

We handle and recycle all common types of lighting waste, including:

✔️ 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

We used Yes Waste for the removal of several hundred fluorescent tubes during a warehouse refurbishment. The team handled the project efficiently and provided all the correct compliance documentation. We’ll be using them again for our other UK sites.

Sarah, Facilities Manager, Middlesbrough

We commissioned Yes Waste to clear legacy lamps from multiple retail units. They scheduled collections around trading hours, provided container options, and documented everything for our audit trail. The process was straightforward and delivered to the agreed scope.

Tom, Regional Operations, Acklam

Our group set up recurring collections across two office campuses and several stores. Yes Waste supplied lamp coffins, trained our site leads on safe storage, and maintained a consistent service across sites. Reporting has been clear and timely after every lift. We value the reliability and compliance focus.

Fluorescent tubes contain mercury and phosphor, both of which are classed as hazardous under UK legislation. These materials can be harmful if mishandled, so they must be processed by licensed professionals who comply with environmental standards.

Where possible, try to store your fluorescent tubes in their original boxes or in a safe, secure area to prevent breakage. If some are damaged or loose, our team can still handle and remove them safely.

We provide secure lamp coffins and storage containers for organisations in Middlesbrough that generate fluorescent tube waste regularly. These are ideal for keeping lighting waste safe between scheduled collections.
