Gas Cylinders

How to arrange an uplift of your empty gas cylinders.

Disposal Route

The gas cylinders must be empty before arranging uplift.

Simply contact the Waste and recycling team and provide the following information:

  1. How many EMPTY cylinders you have
  2. Location of cylinders, including building level and room number
  3. Contact name and number

To make it cost efficient for both us and the contractors we tend to gather a pile of items before arranging an uplift.

Note that the contractors that recycle our empty gas cylinders also uplift fridges/freezers and other waste metal, therefore check that other colleagues don't have such items before contacting the Waste and recycling team.

Making the process more sustainable.

If you gas cylinder still has content but you no longer require it please contact the Waste and recycling team.
