and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must not be disposed
of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old
appliances must be collected separately in order to
optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they
contain and reduce the impact on human health and the
environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on

dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers may take their old appliance to public waste
collection areas, other communal collection areas, or

disposal of old appliances.
