We're no. 1 in recycling

We’re the UK’s no. 1 tech recycler. From large kitchen appliances to small gadgets and the packaging it all comes in, we recycle the lot.

We can collect unwanted tech from your home when we deliver and install. And we’re the only retailer that recycles any tech you bring to our store. It doesn’t matter if you bought it from us or not. And we’ll give you a gift card worth at least £5 to spend online or in-store when you recycle your old tech with us.

Every year we reuse and recycle nearly 65,000 tonnes of appliances and tech. That's the equivalent weight of over 600 blue whales!

We're one of the largest recyclers of polystyrene in the UK, which gets put to good use insulating new homes.

Tech not fit for reuse is carefully broken down so the valuable components can be recycled - and maybe even made into shiny new tech.

We're picking on plastic and packaging.

We’re working with our suppliers to do away with needless plastics and packaging from our products.

And with our own label gaming accessories brand, ADX, we’re on a mission to produce amazing gaming accessories while cutting out waste. We’re reducing and removing all unnecessary plastics from the packaging in our ADX range. We’ve already removed over 500,000 individual pieces of plastic packaging since last year, which includes plastic bags, cable ties, CDs - and that’s just for starters!

We're using less energy.

The most obvious way that any company can reduce their environmental impact is to use less energy. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.

We set an ambitious target to cut our UK energy consumption by 35% by 2020. We’re helping customers cut energy costs, by giving them the choice of more energy efficient products.
