The UK's WEEE regulations require that all retailers of electrical goods assist in delivering a UK wide WEEE collection system and encourage consumers in the participation of recycling electronic equipment.

So that you cant get your waste electrical goods recycled, we have contributed to a national fund to assist local councils to develop their existing waste electronics collection facilities. This should in turn allow producers of this equipment to meet their obligations.

In order to meet our obligations as a retailer / distributor we have opted to become a full member of the Distributor Take back Scheme (DTS). Membership of the DTS gives us exemption from the requirement to provide in-store take back of WEEE from private households on a like for like basis, free of charge.

Not all council sites are suitable to collect all types of waste electrical goods, your nearest designated collection facility site is :

Louds Mill Household Waste Disposal Site
Dorset District Council
St. Georges Road
Dorset
Dorchester
DT1 1PE

Alternatively you can contact your local council offices to arrange for a home collection of WEEE, there may be a small charge for home collections.

Electronic waste is one of the fastest growing waste streams and much of it can be recycled and resources recovered to make new consumer goods. To remind consumers of the collection methods available, which in turn allow recycling to take place, all electrical items sold now carry the 'crossed out wheeled bin' symbol.

Do not place unwanted electrical goods into the normal domestic waste stream. Please contact us if you are unsure of what to do with unwanted electrical goods.
