Scarborough Fluorescent Tube Collection & Disposal Service

We provide reliable fluorescent tube collection services for commercial and public sector clients throughout Scarborough. Fluorescent lamps are classed as hazardous waste because they contain mercury and phosphor, both of which must be handled by a licensed waste carrier in accordance with environmental regulations.

All of our fluorescent tube collections are fully compliant with:

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

If your organisation in Scarborough requires safe and compliant fluorescent tube disposal, contact our team to arrange a tailored waste management plan that suits your site’s needs.

Fluorescent lamps contain small bits of mercury and phosphor, which are both considered hazardous waste. These substances must be processed by licensed waste carriers in accordance with environmental legislation to prevent harm and pollution.

If you can, store your fluorescent tubes in their original packaging or in a safe, enclosed area to avoid breakage. Even if tubes are damaged or unboxed, our operatives can still collect and recycle them safely.

For businesses that regularly produce fluorescent lighting waste, we can provide lamp coffins and secure storage containers. These make it easy to store tubes safely between scheduled collections and ensure ongoing compliance.

After being collected, your fluorescent tubes are taken to a licensed recycling facility for processing. Hazardous materials such as mercury and phosphor are carefully removed, while recyclable components like glass and aluminium are recovered for reuse.

A Hazardous Waste Consignment Note will be issued at the end of your fluorescent tube collection. This document confirms your waste has been processed and recycled according to UK waste management standards.
