What Happens to My Electrical Waste?

We collect and separate your old electrical items and batteries so that they are ready for collection by a licensed specialist recycling company. Your old electrical items can often be stripped down to component level and the parts can be re-used to make new electronic devices.

Why Recycle?

Unwanted electrical equipment is the UK’s 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 human health.

Crossed Out Rubbish Bin Symbol

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.
