Recycling of Old Electrical Equipment UK WEEE Directive

On the 2nd January 2007 the UK Government enacted legislation in line with the European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive. As a result, from July 2007 all electrical products are required to be recycled at the end of their useful life. This regulation outlines rules for the collection, treatment, recovery and environmentally sound disposal of electrical waste.

As a producer and importer for the business to business market, Colin Hill feel the best way to achieve compliance is to offer a collection and responsible disposal service which is charged as and when required, at the end of the product life.

By charging at 'end of life' we are confident that this will ensure our charges are a fair reflection of the true costs incurred. It is not our intention to view this as a profit making exercise.
