E-waste recycling

Our Ferguson Street Recycling Centre accepts household batteries, appliances, mobile phones and other e-waste for recycling.

E-waste is one of the most toxic types of waste in the world. Many e-waste items contain elements that can be recycled, but also chemicals that can leach into our soil and waterways.

By using our e-waste service you will be sending your unwanted electronic item to a processing plant where it is dismantled in an ethical and environmentally sustainable way.

Recycle these items free

We charge a fee for other e-waste.

Pay by cash or card.
