Consumer/End-User Advice


The WEEE directive became UK law on January 2nd 2007.  The regulations were enforced from 1st July 2007 and are now live. If you are a private household customer, then you should drop off your end of life products at your local authority collection point for recycling.  These and other collection points are available to you - your local authority will be able to provide more information.

HP has recycled computer and printer hardware since 1987. Our end-of-life programs benefit our customers and the environment as well as our business. In addition to the millions of products that we recycle, we collect approximately 2.5 million hardware products each year that are refurbished or resold.  HP's Planet Partners recycling service provides an easy way to recycle computer equipment and HP printing supplies. HP's state-of-the-art processes ensure that unwanted hardware or empty HP printing supplies are recycled responsibly.

HP's WEEE registration number is WEE/EJ0076US. This means that HP is a registered producer under the UK Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2007.

If you are an HP business customer then please see further information below.
