WeeeCare - End user compliance information


		Where producer compliance schemes do not apply in relation to non-household WEEE, the last user is responsible for treatment, recycling and environmentally sound disposal of all forms of WEEE. Also, where producer compliance schemes might apply, the regulations do allow for negotiation between producers and business users over the allocation of responsibility for non-household WEEE - for example a user may be able to negotiate a discount on the purchase price of the EEE in exchange for accepting the disposal responsibility. In both these circumstances the end-user has the obligation to ensure that the WEEE is separately collected and to obtain and retain proof that it was handed to a waste management company who treated and disposed of it in an environmentally sound manner. There are no current requirements to keep records of these transactions (other than the normal Duty of Care requirements). However, Defra is currently consulting on a change to the Duty of Care regime which would require non-household end-users to ensure that their WEEE is sent only to authorised treatment facilities. WeeeCare has over 20 years experience of handling, treating and recycling WEEE and we have a national collection operation using our own fleet of vehicles. If you would like further details of this very competitive service please contact us. If you would like to be kept up to date on developments with the WEEE regulations and the proposed changes to Duty of Care mentioned above
