What is WEEE Recycling?

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011

With on-going concerns regarding environmental issues and the potentially damaging effects and strains we are placing on our surroundings, environmental officials introduced the WEEE recycling (waste electrical and electronic equipment) legislation in the UK in 2006 with the intention of reducing the amount of harmful electrical waste that was going into landfill. Here at TDS Safeguard we are dedicated to assisting your business with a professional recycling service so that you can feel confident that you are meeting all the necessary legislation demands and effectively contributing to a greener environment.

The WEEE recycling legislation is designed to ensure retailers and other businesses take responsibility for the impact that disposing harmful electrical components has on the environment. Ultimately, companies have a legal obligation to meet recycling targets for WEEE with the aim of reducing the volume of electronic waste that enters landfill.

Environmental officers conduct reviews on businesses to ensure they are complying with the WEEE recycling legislation, as several businesses have found out the hard way.

Hairdressing suppliers Aston and Fincher Ltd were operating from numerous warehouses nationwide when they were investigated by environmental officers. Their review found that they were failing to comply with the necessary WEEE recycling obligations between 2001 and 2008 and received a fine in excess of £30,000.

Here at TDS Safeguard, we are completely committed to providing you with a WEEE recycling solution to ensure you meet all the recycling demands placed on your business.

We can provide you with fixed term contracts whereby we provide you with all the necessary recycling containers in a variety of sizes on a regular basis. Alternatively, if you would prefer to use our services as and when you require, perhaps you need to dispose of components from your old CCTV system, we can also provide a reliable one-off collection service. Whatever your WEEE recycling requirements are, our professional team have a solution for you.

So, if you have any concerns regarding your company’s failure to comply with the WEEE recycling legislation, please don’t hesitate to contact our professional team here at TDS Safeguard for an efficient service designed to encourage you to meet all necessary recycling requirements. For more information call us today on 020 8211 9800.

How WEEE Recycling Companies Differ

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

When you are looking for a recycling company to take away unwanted items from your home or business, you may have come across the term WEEE recycling, but how does this differ from normal recycling processes? Put simply, WEEE recycling ensures that electrical waste is appropriately recycled and here at TDS Safeguard, we are proud to provide such a service.

Our service differs from that of other recycling companies in many ways, but most notably it is the fact that we are able to effectively recycle many electrical items as well other household and office waste items such as paper and plastic.

Choosing a company capable of providing WEEE recycling is imperative, especially when it comes to commercial electronic waste. The reason for this is a legislation brought into action back in 2007 that states manufacturers, importers and businesses with electronic equipment are responsible for its safe disposal.

We are committed to keeping this type of waste out of landfills and demonstrate this through our highly efficient and reliable recycling service that is fully compliant with the WEEE directive. The incineration of electrical waste leads to harmful gases being released into the atmosphere which can result in environmental damage and a risk to public health.

If you are a business owner looking to rid your office of unnecessary items, the first step is to assess whether or not you think certain objects could be of use to you in the future. The items you no longer need can be collected by our professional team and the things you feel you may require later down the line can be put into storage Oxford for safe keeping.

For a recycling company that differs from most, choose the dedicated and approachable team here at TDS Safeguard for a service that never fails to impress. We make WEEE recycling easy for you through our innovative processes, giving you complete peace of mind that your electronic and electrical waste will not languish in landfill sites. For further information, do not hesitate to search our website.
