WEEE Waste Collection

WEEE Waste Collection
Many people now know to separate paper, bottles and garden waste from their regular rubbish. However, there are still some items which find their way into the wrong containers. One of the most difficult, and increasingly common, waste streams to recycle is WEEE.
The term Waste Electrical and Electronic equipment (WEEE) covers a wide range of products that are often thrown out or replaced on a regular basis, without due consideration to the hazardous components that are included within; such as cooling agents from white goods and anything containing batteries, circuit boards or mercury switches.
WEEE often contains harmful materials that must be uniquely managed and diverted from other waste streams to prevent contamination. At present, more than three quarters of all WEEE is dumped directly into landfills without any kind of recycling taking place, which is why the Mick George Group segregate and manage appropriately.
WEEE can include:
All of these items are recyclable, but you cannot simply put them in your standard recycling bins. Anything electrical, whether it requires a connection to the main electrical circuit or batteries can be classified as WEEE.
