Fluorescent Tube Disposal

How to Dispose of Fluorescent Tubing

Incorrect disposal is harmful to:

• The Environment – If florescent tubes go to landfill, there is the possibility that they will be incinerated, if the mercury inside the tubes is burnt, it will contaminate the environment.
• Wildlife – If mercury contaminates water supplies, it could have detrimental effects on local wildlife.
• Humans – there is the possibility of mercury poisoning in humans.
