WEEE Clearance

The introduction of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (W.E.E.E) Directive in 2006 required all businesses to recycle old technology. Under the Hazardous Waste Regulations (2005) certain electrical items such as IT equipment have already been re-classified as 'hazardous' and must be disposed of in accordance with the new regulations.
