HP's Hardware Return & Recycling Program

Global citizenship

Environmental sustainability home

The European Union's WEEE Directive has been implemented in Ireland and the recycling of electronic products is now operational. In Ireland as of 13 August 2005, HP consumer customers will be able to return their IT products to their local dealer when they buy a new product of equivalent type or which fulfills the same functions, or take them to municipal collection points. In both cases, this service is free. If you would like more information, consult www.erp-recycling.org and follow the Irish link.

Prices for Business Customers in the EU

HP will provide free recycling of all electronic equipment once a customer has returned the equipment to an HP designated collection point and where a replacement product is being supplied by HP. Where a replacement product is not being supplied, recycling services can be provided on request at additional cost. A certificate of disposal will be supplied by HP. Where national legislation dictates that other services should be offered, we will adapt our service to be compliant.
