Details

These standard rules allow you to operate a waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) ATF at a specified location. The total quantity of waste you can accept at your site under these rules must be less than 25,000 tonnes a year.

The rules do not permit you to treat WEEE that contain ozone depleting substances – you can accept them for storage only.
