Where can I recycle?
When purchasing a new electrical or electronic device from any store, the store is obliged to take back your old device free of charge.
If the store needs to pick up your old device from your home or another location, it has the right to charge you for this service. The store then uses WEEE Malta’s Take Back System. Alternatively, you can use the Bulky Refuse system offered by Local Councils, which ensures that these items are taken to a Civic Amenity (CA) site.
The scheme, on behalf of producers, ensures that all material is collected and treated according to market share. For smaller e-waste (with a maximum dimension not exceeding 50cm), such as coffee machines, laptops, chargers, and drills, WEEE Trolleys are available in various Local Councils, schools, and businesses across Malta and Gozo.
Items collected in WEEE Trolleys are sent to an automated recycling facility.
