Anything with a plug, battery or cable can be recycled for free on the day, including old washing machines, TVs, toasters and kettles, electronic tools and toys, cables, IT equipment, mobile phones, remote controls, batteries, including farm fence batteries, and even watches.
People in Offaly contributed greatly to e-waste recycling with 657 tonnes of electrical waste collected in the county in 2023, working out at 7.9kg of e-waste per person in Offaly in 2023 and we want to encourage that trend. We are falling short of the national average of 10.33kg per person that same year.
WEEE Ireland warns that the nation needs to meet new forthcoming EU targets to recycle at least 25% of our annual consumption of critical raw materials from e-waste.
Offaly County Council encourages everybody to avail of these free electrical and electronic recycling days and with old items still lying around many households we want to offer the opportunity to recycle these for free on those dates.
