WEEE Collection services
What counts as WEEE
The WEEE Regulations group equipment into categories such as large and small household appliances, IT and telecoms equipment, lighting, display screens, tools and temperature exchange equipment. Some items, including fridges, older televisions and fluorescent tubes, contain hazardous components and need extra care. See our electrical waste guide for more background.
Business responsibilities when it comes to WEEE recycling in the UK
Businesses must not mix electrical waste with general waste and must pass it to a registered carrier, keeping the transfer documentation. Where WEEE is hazardous, a hazardous waste consignment note applies in England and Wales, and a special waste consignment note in Scotland. The supplier confirms which documents are needed for your load.
How a WEEE collection is arranged
Tell us roughly what equipment you have, how many items, send photos, whether anything contains batteries and where it is stored, including floor level and access. We then confirm the vehicle size needed, any loading help and a collection date. Larger projects such as an office clearance or IT refresh can be coordinated as one job.
Data-bearing equipment
Computers, laptops, phones and servers can hold personal or commercial data. If data security matters, consider IT asset disposal with secure data wiping or destruction rather than a standard WEEE collection.

- Computers, laptops, monitors and printers
- Phones, tablets and networking equipment

WEEE Collection – your questions answered
Can’t see your question? Call 0333 121 1056 or send us a message.
Can electrical items go in a skip?
No. Electrical waste should be collected separately so it can be treated at an authorised facility. Declare any electricals when booking a skip.
Do you collect from households?
This service is aimed mainly at business and bulk quantities. Householders can often use council recycling centres or retailer take-back schemes, or include items in a house clearance.
Will I get a waste transfer note?
Yes. You will receive a waste transfer note, or a hazardous or special waste consignment note where the equipment requires one.
How quickly can WEEE be collected?
It depends on the quantity and local supplier availability. Collection dates are confirmed once the load has been described.
