Washington Fluorescent Tube Collection & Disposal Service

Our fluorescent tube collection and disposal services are available to commercial clients throughout the Washington area, in line with waste disposal regulations. Because fluorescent lamps contain mercury and phosphor, they are classed as hazardous waste, meaning only a licensed waste carrier can legally dispose of them.

Every fluorescent tube collection follows:

✅ Hazardous Waste Regulations
✅ Environmental Protection Act
✅ WEEE Directive
