WEEE - Electrical Recycle Scheme

You can now recycle your old electricals with us.

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

Why recycle?
Unwanted electrical equipment is the UKs fastest growing type of waste.

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

We provide a scheme where customers who purchase any electrical equipment from our website can return their old equipment on a like-for-like basis directly to HOME HARDWARE DIRECT or any of our STORES within 28 days of purchase.

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. 

Those establishing their own take-back scheme must as a minimum offer all customers buying new electrical equipment free take back of their old electricals on a like-for-like basis.

Find more information on WEEE recycling, and locate your local recycling centre, at www.recyclenow.com

COVID - 19

We are currently following all Government guidelines regarding the COVID.19  outbreak and employing many safety practices to protect both our staff and customers alike. We are still delivering at this time but have had to withdraw our Next Day option until further notice due to the unprecedented increase in demand on our delivery service. We have also had to restrict some products to store collect only as our packaging supplier has closed until further notice and we are unable to pack safely. We will keep this post updated with any further news as it happens, finally we appreciate your patience with phone calls and emails as staff shortages means there is a backlog which will be dealt with as soon as staffing returns to normal. 

 We are doing all we can given the current situation to maintain our excellent customer service and fast delivery. With limited staff and being inundated with orders our courier cannot handle the quantities that we are shipping which is causing a bottle neck, this is increasing our delivery time. We aim for customers to receive their order between 3-5 days. Please be patient your order WILL be processed and dispatched.

 Stay Safe.
