How does WEEE work?

From the 13th of August 2005 retailers are obliged to take back WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) from members of the public free of charge. This new EU directive ensures that all historic WEEE products are collected, treated and disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.

​

What products can I recycle for free?

• Large Domestic Appliances – washing machines, cookers, dishwashers etc.

• Cooling Appliances – Refrigerators, freezers etc.

• Small Domestic Appliances – keyboards, toasters, electrical tools

• Display Equipment – Computer monitors, CRT, LCD and plasma televisions

• Batteries – rechargeable and single use

• Lighting - Gas discharge lights, fluorescent tubes, low energy lightbulbs (CFLs)
