WEEE Trolley – Collection Points
WEEE Malta is an authorized National Compliance Scheme that manages the collection, recovery and recycling of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment on behalf of EEE producers/importers.
In order to increase the proper disposal of WEEE, WEEE Malta will on the 15th of November launch the WEEE Trolleys – Collection Points. The trolleys will be placed at Local Councils, schools, colleges, businesses and retailers, where both the staff and/or the visiting public can safely dispose of their small waste electric and electronic equipment.
As a general rule, we categorize Small WEEE as small items that require a plug or batteries to use that can fit inside of the trolley, such as:
- Small kitchen appliances (kettles, toasters, irons etc.)
- Hair dryers, hair straighteners & clippers
- Clocks, watches, calculators & torches
- Remote controls, laptops, mobile phones, cameras & chargers
- Radios, mini hi-fis, & CD & MP3 players
- Small electronic toys e.g. remote control cars
- Power tools, smoke detectors & thermostats
Our school shall be accepting a Trolley for one week to promote the right disposal of this type of waste among students and staff. We encourage you to bring along your unwanted staff as listed above for recycling.
As an incentive, a financial contribution of EUR 50 per ton collected, will be donated to the College.
