If you’re
buying a new electrical fire, we will recycle your old one
for free
Why recycle?
Unwanted electrical equipment is the UKs 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.
Firestyle are now offering a take back
scheme for all electrical fires purchased with us. This is done
on a like-for-like basis so if you buy a new fire from us you
can return an old electric fire to us. You can return your
old electrical fire to our business premises in person or by
post a but you are responsible for any postage costs incurred.
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.
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.
