UK Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations (SI 2006 No. 3289)
You can recycle your electrical equipment.
Why are we involved?
Recycling facilities are now available for all customers at which you can deposit your old electrical products. This is a new requirement under UK and European legislation (The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment - or WEEE - Directive). The aim of legislation is to:
- Make good use of the materials that make up old electrical equipment by recycling rather than disposing in landfill.
- Prevent the negative environmental effects of sending often hazardous electrical equipment to landfill.
As a conscientious business, we have chosen to group together with other retailers in joining the 'Distributor Take Back Scheme'. Through this scheme, we have paid toward the provision of improved of recycling facilities for our customers.
Where to dispose of electrical equipment?
Wherever practical, old electrical waste should not be disposed of with your household waste.
