WEEE Ireland, The Irish Compliance Scheme for Electrical and Battery Recycling

Find your nearest free recycling drop off point

All household electronic, battery and lighting waste – that’s anything with a plug or battery - can be recycled free of charge at hundreds of drop off points around the country. Recycling e-waste and batteries helps to lower CO2 emissions, allows for the recovery of critical raw materials for use in new products, and ensures any toxic substances are safely removed, protecting our environment from harm.

Find your nearest free recycling drop off point - Local Authority Civic Amenity Sites, participating retailers, or upcoming WEEE Ireland Free Public Electrical & Battery Recycling Events below.
