Any electrical items large or small can be recycled at a recycling centre.

Do not put electrical or battery powered items in any of your bins at home.

Before you throw away your tech, it’s worth searching online for repair shops to see if it can be fixed.

If your electrical item is still working and in a reusable condition, your local reuse organisation may be able to refurbish or fix it – giving it a new lease of life and a new home.

Make sure to clear your hard drive or flash drive before donating. For advice on how to remove your data from your computer, laptop or tablet, read this useful article from the National Cyber Security Centre.
