Hi Jerry,
Thank you for contacting us and providing photos of your downlights. It’s great you reached out with this question — electrical equipment contains potentially hazardous and valuable materials that shouldn’t go to landfill, so proper disposal is important.
Downlights cannot be disposed of in any kerbside bins. Light globes, tubes, and electronic components can’t be processed through kerbside recycling and may contaminate the recycling stream.
We recommend using Recycle Mate to find the appropriate local recycling or drop-off points for downlights and other electronic waste in your area.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for your enquiry. Every question helps us build a stronger platform for better recycling solutions.
Please feel free to reach out to Recycle Mate anytime with your recycling questions.
