Recycling: Since July 2007 the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations have applied. The regulations were introduced to reduce the amount of untreated waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) going to landfill and to ensure that equipment collected separately is dealt with properly. If you are taking the product away with you then you may return your old product to us within 28 days. If we are delivering to you locally by our own engineers then we can also collect and recycle your old electrical item when you have your new product delivered if it is of a similar type, i.e. an old TV of any sort will be collected if you purchased another TV of any type. All local authorities across the UK now have dedicated facilities for collecting waste electrical goods so you can take your product there. If you purchased your product via our internet site then you can return your similar item to us at either branch at your cost.
Look for the logo: All new electrical and electronic equipment we sell at Robinsons can be recycled! You can tell because our products include a ‘crossed out wheeled bin symbol’. Even if your old product doesn’t have the ‘crossed out wheeled bin’ symbol, the good news is we’ll gladly accept and recycle your old electrical and electronic equipment to the best of our ability. Benefits of recycling Recycling unwanted electrical products is better for the environment. Lead and other toxins contained in electrical goods can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a very harmful effect on the natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. When situated near populated areas these toxins can cause problems to communities as their water and soil is polluted. Many of the electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save natural resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending waste electrical goods to landfill.
