Where can you Recycle?

When you buy a new electrical or electronic device, the store is legally required to take back your old device for free. If they need to collect it from your home, they may charge for that service. You can also use the Local Council’s Bulky Refuse system to recycle larger items.

For small e-waste (items under 50cm like laptops, chargers, or coffee machines), you can dispose of them in WEEE Trolleys, available at local councils, schools, and businesses across Malta and Gozo.
