WEEE Waste Collection & Recycling Services

Reduce risk. Protect the environment. Stay compliant.

We help UK businesses manage Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) safely and in compliance with the law. We provide free bins and containers, nationwide collection services, and full compliance documentation for most types and volumes of e-waste.

Electrical items contain valuable materials and hazardous components. So WEEE waste must be separated from general waste and sent to approved facilities for proper treatment and recycling. We make it simple with fast quotes and tailored collection schedules that match your organisation’s workflow.

WEEE Recycling: How We Process 
Your E-Waste

Electrical equipment is dismantled at approved treatment facilities using processes designed to recover value and remove risks:

  • Hazardous elements removed safely, e.g. refrigerants, mercury lamps, batteries
  • Components dismantled by material type
  • Metals are shredded, melted, and reused
  • Plastics are granulated and reformed into new products
  • Glass from screens is crushed and reprocessed
  • Secure data handling removes confidential information if required

Recycling protects the environment, preserves resources, and supports a circular economy.
