Disposal of electrical items

You can dispose of your old household electronic equipment at Townmead Road Reuse and Recycling Centre.

Separate containers are provided:

• Large household appliances (like washing machines and cookers)
• Fridges and freezers
• Televisions and computer monitors
• Fluorescent tubes and energy efficient light bulbs (gas discharge lamps) - see the Recycle Now website for other disposal options
• Other WEEE (commonly called small WEEE) (for example: hair dryers or electric toothbrushes)

If you don't know which container to place your electrical items, ask a member of staff on site who will be happy to assist.

Taking back your electrical items to the shop

Some shops are now taking back old small electrical appliances when you buy a new one, check the list of retailer take back schemes.

Large retailers that sell batteries should also have recycling containers for returning them.
