WEEE Recycle

The WEEE Regulations (Wasted Electrical and Electronic Equipment)

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations are laws that apply to electrical and electronic manufacturers. These laws are in place in order to reduce the amount of environmental waste from electronic products.

 

You can now recycle your old electronics items with us.

If you’re buying a new electronic item from us directly, we will recycle your old one for free on one for one, like for like basis.

 

Why recycle?

Unwanted electronic and electrical equipment is the UKs fastest growing type of waste and each year we throw away over 1.2 million tonnes of electronic waste. Many electronic and electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle, they will end up in landfill where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and human health.
