Recycling at Cloney Audio

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) - Europe’s recycling directive

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires producers to be responsible for the financing of the treatment, recovery and environmentally sound disposal of WEEE from 13 August 2005. It means that final users of such household WEEE are entitled to leave that waste back free of charge, either to retail outlets in instances where a replacement item is purchased, or other authorised collection points, including local authority civic amenity sites, from that date onwards.

As in line with the Environmental Production Agency (EPA), you can bring back waste EEE (WEEE) and waste batteries to Cloney Audio free of charge. Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is taken back free of charge on a one-for-one, like-for-like basis. Please ring +353 1 288 8477 to arrange a drop-off at our store in Blackrock.

Cloney Audio is a trading name of Carnival Trading Ltd. Carnival Trading Ltd’s Producer Registration Number is IE 00809 WB.

Returns & Collection (ROI only): Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is taken back free of charge on a one-for-one, like-for-like basis. Waste batteries including rechargeable batteries are taken back free of charge. You are not obliged to make any purchase when returning old batteries. Each local authority must also accept household WEEE and small batteries free of charge at its recycling facilities. All WEEE and waste batteries must be recycled and should not be placed in any of your household wheelie bins. Make sure you always recycle all your old electrical goods and batteries.
