WEEE "Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment"

What is WEEE?

• The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations (2006 No. 3289) (WEEE) is a new UK legislation designed to address the environmental impact of waste electrical and electronic equipment
• The regulations have been put in place to ensure that products are recycled using best available treatment, recovery and recycling techniques to ensure human health and high environmental protection
• Both XS-Stock.com Ltd and our customers can assist in recycling waste electrical and electronic equipment
• We cannot recycle it unless you return it, so our customers have an important role to play in helping us to recycle
• XS-Stock.com Ltd will undertake their responsibility as a Distributor to dispose of these goods in line with European legislation

How do I recycle my old products?

• It means that you can return waste electrical equipment to XS-Stock.com Ltd when you are purchasing a new product from us under our distributer obligations*
• When you have finished with a WEEE product, please do not put in your domestic waste bin, as it will not be recycled
• Please contact us at weeerecycling@xs-stock.co.uk to arrange a convenient time for you to send the old item back to us (cost of return is covered by customer)
• Please quote your XS-Stock.com Ltd product order number and describe the item that is to be recycled
• Please carefully package any item for sending in advance to avoid transit damage
• We will then deal with the waste product in an environmentally responsible manner, at no further cost to you

*It has to be like for like (e.g. a laptop for a laptop, not a TV for a laptop).
