Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)

WEEE is the fastest growing waste stream in the UK, growing by at least 5% each year
We dispose of over 1.2 million tonnes of electrical and electronic waste every year in the UK from the public alone.
Each and every year, this is the equivalent of:
150,000 double decker busses
OR
164 Eiffel Towers
OR
200,000 African Elephants
OR
444,444 Range Rovers
The amount of electrical waste created by members of the public in the UK would fill the new Wembley 6 times over every year!
The average UK citizen will discard of 3.3 tonnes of WEEE in a life time – equal to one double decker bus for each and every family.
Two million TV sets are discarded alone every year.
Electronic waste is increasing three times faster than average municipal waste and the EU estimates that WEEE currently accounts for 4% of total waste.
Much of the UK’s electronic waste ends up in landfill sites, where toxins put communities at risk. Failure to segregate any type of recyclable material in the home will usually result in items being disposed of in a landfill site (buried in the ground in the UK) or being incinerated.
It has been estimated that landfill space in the UK will run out within the next 10 years. Recycling WEEE will have significant effects on the environment.
Where WEEE is not recycled, this waste can have negative impacts on soil, air and water quality which can lead to environmental damage, and which can also lead to negative impacts on human health and animal heath.

Find out how to minimise your effect on the environment by visiting www.recycle-more.co.uk

Locate your nearest recycling facilities for electronic waste with the recycle-more bank locator, which includes an easy to use interactive mapping system.
You will also find advice and tips on how to recycle waste electrical goods and other household items, making it quick and easy for everyone to recycle-more!

So that you can get your waste electrical goods recycled, we have contributed towards a national fund to assist local councils to further develop their existing waste electronics collection facilities, which will in turn allow producers of this equipment to meet their obligations.
