You can now recycle your old electricals with us.
If you’re buying a new electrical item, we will recycle your old one for free


Why recycle?
Unwanted electrical equipment is the UK’s fastest growing type of waste. Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle, electrical equipment will end up in landfill where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and also human health.


We can help
We are pleased to offer our customers the chance to recycle their old electrical items. All you need to do is call us on 01483 740960 prior to placing your order online and we will arrange for a courier to pick your used product for safe disposal. To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled, it is now marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Please do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked with the crossed out wheeled bin symbol) in your bin.
 
Waste Battery Regulations
Under the Waste Battery Regulations Hire Services (Southern) Ltd. (Trading as HSS Hire Services Southern & HSSToolShop.co.uk) offer a take back scheme for all portable waste batteries. These can be returned to us at our shop at 3 Manor Way, Old Woking, Surrey, GU22 9JX during normal business hours (please do not post). Alternatively you can find your local waste portable battery recycling facility at www.recyclenow.co.uk. Most supermarkets and shops that sell batteries will have collection bins for used batteries and some town halls, libraries or schools may also set up collection points. End-users may find stores in their local area more accessible.
 
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.
