Retailers have obligations to facilitate customer ‘take-back’ of their WEEE and portable batteries in-store.
Ecogenesys has a national network of approved service providers, enabling us to deliver a tailored service to match your specific needs around national coverage, volumes and space in store.
Our comprehensive take-back service assists retailers in the proper, safe handling and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous WEEE; and portable batteries.
The Ecogenesys take-back service is able to accommodate independent retailers with just one store, through to multi-national retailers with 100s of nationwide outlets. Our services include the provision of WEEE boxes, WEEE bags and dedicated battery collection points with frequencies tailored to each store’s requirements.
