WEEE have a new recycling service at Selsey


This news article was posted on Fri 04/11/2011

SELSEY mobile waste service is to begin piloting a new collection service for a wide range of broken or unwanted small electrical items – from toasters to TVs, from mobile phones to hairdryers, from chainsaws to lawnmowers – from the end of November.

The mobile service, which is available every Friday between 8am-3pm at East Beach Car Park and currently accepts general rubbish and green waste, will be able to accept Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment – WEEE - every two months, starting on Friday November 25.

The scheme is being run by West Sussex County Council in partnership with Viridor, which operates the site, and Chichester District Council.

It follows the County Council successfully gaining funding for the pilot from the manufacturers and retailers of electrical and electronic waste, who are legally required to fund the recycling of WEEE at their end of life.

County Council Deputy Leader Lionel Barnard, Cabinet Member responsible for waste, said: “West Sussex is a UK pacesetter when it comes to recycling WEEE items.

“However, recycling electronics has never before been a mobile service – but we are confident the residents of Selsey will help us maintain our pacesetter status by helping to trial this new service.”

The new service will be able to accept a wide range of WEEE, but it will not be able take larger items, such as washing machines and cookers.

Unfortunately it will not be able to accept items classed as hazardous, such as fridges, freezers, florescent tubes and batteries.

For all items that can’t be accepted at Selsey, there are a number of options available:

•    Chichester Household Waste Recycling Site, Coach Road, Westhampnett, PO18 0NS.
•    Chichester District Council also offers a chargeable bulky household collection service. For more details visit www.chichester.gov.uk/wasteandrecycling or telephone 01243 534619
