"Its not easy being green!" and it's not easy disposing of your redundant IT equipment these days.

With the ongoing WEEE Directives that arrived on January
2nd 2007 and the Hazardous Waste directives that came
way back in July 2005, there are a whole bunch of hoops to
jump through.

CRT monitors are classed as Hazardous Waste and contain
approximately 4lb of lead in the screen to protect you
from radiation.

In order for us to collect your monitors you must register
your premises as a Hazardous Waste Producer.
This enables us to collect your waste equipment within the
WEEE guidelines.

You can do it online for just £18 at:
https://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/apps/
hazwaste/ registrationwelcome.jsp

You will then be issued with a Premises Code which will
enable us to fill out a hazardous waste form and then make
your collection. There are exemptions for various offices,
shops, etc. but these only apply to producers of under 200kg
per year (equivalent to about 10 computers a year)

We will then supply you with a Hazardous Waste Consignment
Note for you to keep for your own records - for future Audits.
