The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) regulations
came in force in the UK on the 2 January 2007. Brand owners, importers
and distributors of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE)
are affected, attracting an obligation under the UK WEEE regulations.

You can now recycle your old electricals with us.
Why recycle?
Unwanted electrical equipment is the UKs fastest growing type
of waste.
Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural
resources and the environment. If you do not recycle,
electrical equipment will end up in landfill where hazardous
substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming
wildlife and also human health.
We can help
We are pleased to offer our customers the chance to
recycle their old electrical items on a like for like basis.
In the Shopping Cart simply tick the check box next to
Collection Options and we'll collect when we deliver. Please
note that our Collection Charge is for the transportation and
collection of your old appliances, we do not charge
for recycling
To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled,
it is now marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Please
do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked
with the crossed out wheeled bin symbol) in your bin.
What is WEEE?
The Waste Electrical or Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
requires countries to maximise separate collection and environmentally
friendly processing of these items. In the UK, distributors
(including retailers) must provide a system which allows all
customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to
recycle their old items free of charge. Those establishing
their own take-back scheme must as a minimum offer all customers
buying new electrical equipment free take back of their old
electricals on a like-for-like basis.
