The Waste Management (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations came into effect in the Republic of Ireland on 13 August 2005. These are designed to prevent and reduce the amount of waste electrical and electronic equipment going to landfill by promoting its re-use, recycling and disposal in an environmentally responsible manner.A crossed-out wheelie bin symbol represents electrical and electronic products which should not be disposed of in the normal waste stream, but should be taken to an appropriate facility to enable their recovery and recycling.Marks and Spencer (Ireland) Ltd is registered with the WEEE Register Society (IE00319WB) in accordance with the provisions of the article 12(3) of the European Union (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations (S.I. No.149 of 2014).

Waste electrical and electronic equipment take back is free of charge on an indefinite, one-for-one equivalent basis and must be of a similar type or have performed the same function as the new equipment purchased online or in one of our stores in the Republic of Ireland.
