WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the environment) and basic components (which can be re-used). It is

important to have WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and recover and recycle all materials.

Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules:

WEEE should not be treated as household waste.

WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home

collection could be present.

In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as

the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.
