How Our Fluorescent Tube Disposal Service In Swadlincote Works

On the day of your fluorescent lamp waste clearance, our operatives arrive at your site to remove all fluorescent lighting waste safely and efficiently. After collection, the tubes are taken to a licensed recycling facility, where mercury and phosphor are separated using controlled processes designed to meet UK hazardous waste standards. Remaining materials, including aluminium and glass, are directed into authorised recycling routes.

We manage all major categories of commercial lighting waste:

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

A large redevelopment in Swadlincote generated substantial fluorescent lighting waste, and Yes Waste organised the clearance with excellent coordination. Their operatives worked safely around active areas, ensured every lamp was handled correctly, and maintained clear communication. The recycling documentation helped support our compliance reporting with ease. Yes Waste delivered a dependable fluorescent tube disposal service that helped keep the project on schedule.

Most fluorescent lamp collections in the area are arranged within one to two working days, subject to availability. We plan each visit around your operations to minimise disruption while your lighting waste is removed.

Many fluorescent tubes contain mercury and phosphor, both recognised as hazardous materials under UK law. These substances must be handled by licensed professionals and processed at approved recycling facilities to avoid environmental harm.

We provide lamp coffins and secure storage containers for businesses producing larger quantities of fluorescent lighting waste. These containers offer a safe and compliant way to store tubes between scheduled collections.

Following collection, fluorescent tubes are transported to a licensed recycling facility where mercury and phosphor are removed under controlled conditions. Remaining elements, such as aluminium and glass, are separated and passed into authorised recycling routes.
