WEEE Waste Disposal

Simple and compliant electronic waste solutions. 

 

A relatively new waste stream, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) waste promotes compliant segregation, transport, recovery and disposal of electric and electronic items. 

 


 

WEEE waste is easily identifiable as anything with a plug or a battery. Our team will prioritise your compliance needs by helping you navigate the WEEE Regulations of 2013 which provide clear outline that failure to comply with the WEEE waste regulations may result in a fine. Whether you are a hospital, a GP, or private health practice, you will have electronic waste that must be disposed of properly with a trusted total waste management partner.

Each personalised plan with our customers begins with an onsite audit that results in a catalogue of all electrical items. We know how daunting managing some waste streams can be, so we want to assist in any way possible. From there we walk you through the process of packaging, disposal, and everything in between, as well as assessing rebate potential for electronic equipment. Like all waste streams that Sharpsmart manages, our commitment is to utilise the most environmental processing and treatment methods attainable and, where possible, recycling. By utilising sustainable methods, laptops and devices can be re-used rather than being disposed of, with each piece of equipment processed through specialist software to guarantee data destruction. Through our secure transport and waste processing, we deliver complete traceability and accountability of any collections and consignments, so your records are preserved.

 

What we can deliver in WEEE waste management:

  • Significant cost savings
  • Improved compliance, avoidance of fines and realisation of all applicable rebates 
  • Guarantee of irretrievability and certificates of destruction
  • Battery boxes, WEEE boxes and large collection bins

"We can count on Sharpsmart..."

Implementation, staff education and after sales service is of high quality. We can count on experienced staff to address any situation we encounter.

"Reduces our footprint..."

The reason why we chose to use the Sharpsmart sharps container was due to the sustainability issues of being able to recycle the actual sharps bin rather than incinerating them and causing more issues with carbon footprint.

"Market Leader for a Reason..."

Sharpsmart are broadly recognised as the market leader. Having worked with them for 8 months I can see why. You get what you pay for, Excellent!

"Exceptional Training..."

For a number of years I have had the pleasure of having Sharpsmart as a service provider and throughout the years I have been impressed with their commitment to customer service. We have not only been the recipient of good quality service, our staff have been provided exceptional training by informative and dedicated staff. Our questions and issues are always addressed in a timely manner and the team at Sharpsmart have always gone above and beyond our expectations.

"Would recommend to everyone..."

We are extremely pleased with the service we are receiving from Sharpsmart. The sharps bins are a lot safer than what we were previously using and can be wall mounted really easily. Collections are always on time and consignment notes provided. We would recommend Sharpsmart to anyone and everyone.
