Environmental Statement & Actions
As a business Cycle World and its employees make every effort to reduce any environmental impact that operating in today’s world may have. Our ‘green’ attititude is positively applied to many aspects of our business, from the recycling of waste material to the everyday working practices we employ. As part of our commitment to these issues and to comply with current legislation we offer ‘take back’ of your waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) when you make a purchase of a similar item from us. For instance, if you buy a set of lights then you are entitled to return your old set to us within 28 days of purchase. Your waste material should be returned to the branch where you made the purchase of your replacement. If you have purchased goods online then you should, at your own expense, return waste to the address below. The waste we collect is disposed of in an appropriate manner and in accordance with UK law and legislation. For more information on WEEE legistaltion please visit the Government website - http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/business/topics/waste/32096.aspx


"The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge. The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. Much of the UK's WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites. Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin. Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled."
