Credit Account Microwave Disposal
The Mick George Group collect, segregate and manage Waste Electrical and Electronic equipment (WEEE) such as Microwaves to safeguard against potentially harmful materials contaminating other waste streams, saving you additional landfill charges.
Microwave Disposal
Around 60% of e-waste amounts from household appliances like microwave ovens.
A microwave is a convenient piece of kitchen equipment, ideal for those who want to prepare or cook food fast. But like all devices, the functionality of a microwave can suffer over time. The more you use it, the more likely you’ll eventually need to replace it.
Getting rid of a microwave is more complicated than it might seem. Your first impulse might be to just throw it in the rubbish but as microwaves are considered WEEE waste, more consideration is needed.
Historically, old and broken microwaves would often end up in landfill at the end of their life, but it is becoming increasingly easier to safely recycle them. If a microwave cannot be repaired or salvaged for parts, it should be properly disposed of to avoid landfill with other household waste.
