Recycling electricals and batteries
This page is a template awaiting review and final wording from GreenGlide. It does not yet form a binding policy.
Why this matters
GreenGlide is a brand of TCTNT LTD. Under the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations 2013 and the Waste Batteries and Accumulators Regulations 2009, electrical products and batteries must never go in your household bin. The crossed out wheelie bin symbol on our products and batteries is a reminder of this.
How to dispose of your product
We do not run an in store or postal take back scheme. Instead, please take old electric buggies, follow trolleys, chargers and batteries to your local household waste recycling centre (civic amenity site), where they will be recycled free of charge.
Find your nearest recycling centre
Use the Recycle Your Electricals locator at recycleyourelectricals.org.uk, the Recycle Now locator at recyclenow.com, or the GOV.UK service at gov.uk/recycling-collections to find your nearest site. Your local council website also lists centres and opening times.
Lithium batteries: stay safe
Before you travel, charge or discharge the battery to roughly half, cover the terminals with insulating tape, and carry it upright in a sturdy box away from metal objects. Never dispose of a damaged, swollen or leaking battery with general waste; tell the recycling centre staff so they can handle it safely.
