Did you know….

  • On average, each person in the UK buys almost three new electrical items each year – or around 170 million nationally.
  • For every 10kg of small electricals purchased in 2012 (the average amount per person), only 30% were sent to be recycled.
  • There’s no need to bin items – you can drop them off at your local recycling centre.
  • Recycling electricals is environmentally friendly – unwanted electricals and electronics can be re-used or recycled and contain really valuable raw materials. For example, one iron contains enough steel to produce 13 steel cans.
  • Some retailers offer free recycling schemes or take back options. Ask your local retailer for more information.
