Our lighting equipment recycling service covers redundant luminaires, LED fittings, emergency lighting and high-bay lights from commercial and industrial sites. Refurbishment and maintenance projects can generate a mixture of fittings and separate lamps, with different conditions and collection requirements. Identify the lighting types, any fluorescent lamps and any broken items in your enquiry so our team can review the load without assuming every lighting waste stream follows the same treatment route.
Collect luminaires, emergency lighting, LED fittings and other waste lighting equipment from refurbishments, maintenance programmes and premises clearances.

Prepare a lighting waste collection
Describe fittings and lamps
List luminaires, control gear and light sources separately, with quantities or container counts.
Identify fragile or hazardous items
Flag fluorescent and other gas discharge lamps so their condition and packaging can be reviewed.
Describe the project load
Provide site, access and storage details for removed fittings and associated electrical equipment.
Recycling commercial lighting equipment
We arrange onward recycling and treatment based on the electrical waste being collected and your location.
Our team reviews complete luminaires and loose light sources as distinct parts of a lighting enquiry. Describe fitting and lamp types, quantities and any known damage so the collection scope can be discussed.
The importance of recycling lighting equipment
Luminaires and lamps contain metals, glass, plastics and electronic control gear, and some lamps contain materials that need careful handling. Recycling lighting equipment recovers these materials and keeps potentially harmful substances out of general waste.
