How Our Fluorescent Tube Disposal Service In Retford Works

Once your fluorescent tube collection service is scheduled, our operatives will arrive on-site to remove your lighting waste efficiently. The waste is then transferred to a licensed recycling facility, where hazardous components, such as mercury and phosphorus, are extracted, and materials like glass and aluminium are processed for reuse.

We collect and recycle a broad range 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

Many fluorescent lamps contain small amounts of mercury and phosphor, both classed as hazardous materials under UK waste law. These components require professional handling by licensed waste carriers to prevent contamination and maintain environmental safety.
