Waste Electrical Items

The European Directive on Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment, WEEE, means that consumers are entitled to have their old electrical and electronic equipment taken back at point of sale when they are purchasing a new similar item. The old item is then recycled.    In addition there are two sites for the collection of household WEEE in Limerick City.
