Small quantities of light fixtures

  • Put into your black cart

Larger sizes or quantities of light fixtures

  • Take to a City Eco Centre

Take large quantities of light fixtures to a City Eco Centre for disposal – charges will apply.

Special instructions

    • Putting the pieces into a puncture-resistant, non-breakable container (e.g. plastic tub or pail with lid.); or
    • Wrapping in two layers of paper and place in a tied bag.
