Fluorescent lighting contains mercury and phosphor, which are classified as hazardous materials under UK law. These substances require licensed handling and must be processed through approved recycling facilities to prevent environmental harm.

Keeping your fluorescent tubes in their original packaging is ideal, though any secure area that prevents breakage is suitable. Even if your tubes are loose or damaged, our team can still collect and recycle them safely.

Businesses generating lighting waste regularly can request lamp coffins and secure storage containers. These offer a safe and compliant way to store fluorescent tubes between scheduled disposal dates.

All fluorescent tubes are taken to a licensed recycling facility. Hazardous substances are removed using specialist equipment, and remaining materials such as glass and aluminium are sent into approved recycling channels.

Every fluorescent lamp waste collection is tracked by a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note. This document outlines how your waste was handled and confirms compliance with UK environmental regulations.
