As of 01/07/2007, the WEEE directive for "effective" lamp disposal took effect, imposing a £0.15 disposal charge per fluorescent and discharge light source. The charge levied by all lamp manufacturers to conform to EEC requirements - Ref. SI 2006 no. 3289. Our practice: all "spent" lamps will be removed from site at the end of visit and disposed of via Recolight from our depot in Gosport or with Recolight in the regions.
As of 1/9/2010 disposal costs have been reduced to:
Discharge Lamps/Tubes: £0.10 per lamp
LED Lamps: £0.03 per lamp
CFLs Retrofit: £0.03 per lamp
