RECYCLING
Introduction
Getting rid of an old appliance in a safe and environmentally friendly way can be a real problem
If you're replacing an old appliance, the last thing you want is your old one still in the house, and sometimes even moving it can be a problem. At Foulkes Electrical we can help.
Scrap Product Collection
Scrap Product collection costs £14.99
When we deliver a new appliance, or a Television, our home delivery team will take away your old appliance and make sure it's properly recycled. We will make sure your old appliance is disposed of in a legal and environmentally friendly way.
We're also a member of the Government's WEEE DTB Scheme (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Distributor Take Back). You can see our Weee compliance certificate here. You don't even have to buy from us - if you've got an old appliance to get rid of, we'll take it away for £24.99. Just call us on 01621 853148 and we will arrange a collection*.
How can I recycle?
If you've got a small portable item to recycle, or can move your old appliance yourself, first, you should make sure your old electronics can be recycled. To do this, just look for the crossed out wheelie bin symbol on the packaging or product. This means you should either send the product to be repaired and reused, or take it to your local recycling facility.
The staff there will make sure everything is disposed of responsibly in a way that doesn't affect the environment. There is no charge for this service.
Recycling your old batteries
Foulkes Electrical are now offering a take back scheme for all portable waste batteries. Just return them to our store and we will do the rest.
Alternatively, you can find your local waste portable battery recycling facility at www.recyclenow.com
