Lightbulbs are recycled through specialised processes that safely separate their different components so valuable materials can be recovered and reused. Once collected, bulbs are sorted by type, such as LEDs, fluorescent tubes, or traditional incandescent bulbs. By breaking lightbulbs down into their raw materials, recycling helps reduce hazardous waste, conserve resources, and support a more circular approach to everyday products. This episode of Recycled Content, is the 'Rubbish Process' from episode 34 of Talking Rubbish, which first aired on 20th March 2025. While every effort has been made to provide the most accurate information, recycling guidance changes quickly and some advice may become outdated over time. Always check with your local council for the rules that apply to recycling in your area.
