Recycling and WEEE

Recyling

If you have old / vintage hi-fi equipment that you no longer require, then check with us as to whether we might be able to use it. Although we are unable to use everything.. if we are able to recycle then we will surely try! Send us a message as to what you have, or give us a call. And if you buy anything new from us, then we will recycle your old one for FREE

Why recycle?

Unwanted electrical equipment is the UK’s fastest growing type of waste, with many items just requiring a new home, or it maybe something that we can repair or recycle.

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

Simply bring back your old equipment to the shop or message us and we’ll let you know if we can recyle it.

WEEE Regulations

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.
