Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations (WEEE) have been put in place to ensure that products are recycled using best available treatment, recovery and recycling techniques to ensure human health and high environmental protection.

When you have finished with a WEEE product, please do not put in your domestic waste bin, as it will not be recycled. Reclaimed Enjoyment offers an In-Store Take Back Scheme. In this scheme, Reclaimed Enjoyment will accept a waste item from customers in-store when selling them an equivalent new item. Items may be different products, but must perform the same function. Customers are allowed one month after sale to return their old item.

To ensure that your WEEE is recycled in accordance with the regulations, you must ensure that the goods are not put in the bin, but are separately disposed of by taking the WEEE to your local designated collection facility. This would normally be your local civic amenity site (recycling centre). To locate your local site, contact your local authority.
