If you’re buying a new electrical item, we will recycle your old one for free

Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment.  If you do not recycle, electrical equipment will end up in landfill where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and also human health.

We are pleased to offer our customers the chance to recycle their old electrical items.

Under the Waste Battery Regulations, we are now offering a take back scheme for all portable waste batteries. You can return your waste batteries to our office at the following address:

Flower Garden Leeds
The Beeches
20 Ring Road
Shadwell
Leeds
LS17 8NJ

Alternatively, you can find your local waste portable battery recycling facility at www.recyclenow.com

To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled, it is now marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Please do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked with the crossed out wheeled bin symbol) in your bin.

What is WEEE?

The Waste Electrical or Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires countries to maximise separate collection and environmentally friendly processing of these items.  In the UK, distributors (including retailers) must provide a system which allows all customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to recycle their old items free of charge.

As part of the regulations, we as a retailer offer our customers the option to return their WEEE free of charge when purchasing a similar item or an item for similar use as their old equipment.
