Services for our members

Our in-store take-back scheme

WEEE RETURN members have a clear overview of what’s what thanks to our online portal: how many old appliances have been handed in to the individual registered collection points, how many were taken back without the customers buying new EEE (small WEEE), how many were in exchange for a new appliance (like for like)? This detailed record of old appliances is one of the reasons why we have such a fair and transparent invoicing system.

What’s more, this online system also guarantees that everything runs smoothly: if your collection boxes are full, then we’ll make sure they are exchanged for empty ones by a certified transport firm.

Our long distance take-back scheme

Together with its logistics partners, WEEE RETURN offers online/mail order retailers and their customers a truly convenient service that is difficult to beat: we’ll inform the consumers which of the 4,500 collection points is closest to them or even collect the appliances from their homes. The advantages for the customers are obvious but the retailers benefit as well. If they don’t offer this collection service then they must set up collection points that are located within a reasonable distance from their customers – a hugely expensive undertaking.

No matter what the case: www.weee-return.de acts as an information centre for all customers using the WEEE RETURN scheme, providing answers for all their questions regarding the collection, transport and recycling of old electrical equipment.

Additional services

Extra services & added value

Recycling WEEE? This doesn’t have to be some annoying responsibility. Thanks to our range of additional services, you really can deliver added value to your customers and to your own business. Here are just a few examples:

Icon-euro

Many of the old appliances still work and some of them can be sold on again. We sell such devices for our members.

Icon-mobile

Old for new? This is not some new invention thought up by those writing the ElektroG2 but a well-established marketing and promotion tool. Turn your obligation to take back WEEE into an advertising opportunity.

Icon-lock

Data security? This is not guaranteed simply by handing in old devices. We can have your customers’ data deleted from their old appliances (containing storage media) using secure and certified systems.

Icon-recycle

We not only collect, transport and recycle electrical and electronic equipment. We are also very happy to collect and recycle other types of waste, such as fluorescent tubes, packaging material and batteries.
