MESH Computers and the WEEE Regulations

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (or WEEE) Regulations are now U.K. law. All European member States including the U.K. have agreed to reduce the amount of WEEE that is being disposed of in landfill sites.

It is important that the amount of WEEE going into landfill is reduced because:

Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (or EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites.

MESH Computers are “doing our bit” under these regulations by offering our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product.

For example, if a customer buys a new monitor from us we will take back their old monitor and prevent it going into a landfill site by disposing of it safely. Customers must return their old WEEE within 28 days of purchasing their new item. If you would like to return your WEEE to us then please telephone us on 0208 955 0731 or email us at [email protected] to arrange to bring your waste electronic equipment to our Head Office at Unit 6, Central Business Centre, Great Central Way, London NW10 0UR, for recycling. We are also able to provide a collection service but carriage charges will apply.

Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below:

Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste.
