WEEE Compliance

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) must be kept out of general household waste. This page explains how to recycle the electrical items we sell — radios, torches, power banks, chargers and similar gear.

Last updated: August 2026

Why electricals are handled separately

Electrical and electronic equipment contains materials that can harm the environment if landfilled, alongside metals and plastics that can be recovered and reused. UK WEEE rules exist so this equipment is collected and treated properly rather than binned.

The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol

A crossed-out wheelie bin on a product or its packaging means the item must not be put in your normal household bin at end of life. It should be taken to a designated collection point for electricals instead.

Which of our products this applies to

  • Radios and wind-up or solar powered devices
  • Torches, lanterns and rechargeable lighting
  • Power banks, chargers and cables
  • Any other item supplied with a battery or plug
Batteries should be removed where possible and recycled separately at a battery collection point.

Take-back on purchase

When you buy a new electrical product from us, we will accept the equivalent old item back for correct recycling on a like-for-like basis. Email info@crisis-case.com within 28 days of delivery with your order reference and a description of the item, and we will confirm where to send it and who covers the return.

Recycling locally

You can also take electricals to your local authority Household Waste Recycling Centre free of charge. Enter your postcode at recyclenow.com to find your nearest site and check what it accepts.
