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 M2Cshop 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
  • M2Cshop will undertake their responsibility as a Distributor to dispose of these goods in line with European legislation

  • Please carefully package any item for collection in advance to avoid transit damage
  • We will then deal with the waste product in an environmentally responsible manner, at no cost to you
  • If the item involved is a small package (e.g. telephones, shavers, etc.), we may request for it to be posted to the address below and we will re-imburse your postage costs

*The new product being purchased has to be like for like (e.g. a telephone for a telephone, not a Hi-Fi for a telephone)
