Our Story

About Our Company and Our People

Spark Recycling was founded with a clear purpose — to improve how electrical and electronic waste is handled in the UK.

Too often, WEEE disposal is complicated, poorly documented, or handled without full regulatory transparency. We set out to change that.

Our team brings experience from the waste management and environmental compliance sectors, with a strong focus on:

✓ Regulatory compliance
✓ Environmental responsibility
✓ Data security
✓ Transparent documentation
✓ Reliable nationwide collections

As a growing company, we are committed to achieving and maintaining industry-recognised standards and environmental best practices.

What We Do

We provide compliant WEEE recycling and electrical waste collection services including:

✔ IT equipment disposal
✔ Secure data destruction
✔ Office and commercial clearances
✔ Retail and warehouse electrical waste removal
✔ Lighting and hazardous electrical waste handling
✔ Household electrical recycling collections (where applicable)

All waste collected is processed through authorised recycling partners in line with UK environmental regulations.

We provide appropriate documentation and certification to ensure your business meets its legal Duty of Care obligations.

Our Commitment to Compliance

Electrical waste disposal in the UK is governed by strict regulations. Businesses must ensure:

✔ Waste is transferred to licensed carriers
✔ WEEE is processed at approved facilities
✔ Documentation is retained
✔ Hazardous materials are handled correctly

We operate in accordance with UK WEEE regulations and environmental guidance, ensuring every collection is compliant from collection through to final processing.

For businesses, this means peace of mind.
For households, it means responsible recycling.
For the environment, it means less landfill and more recovery of valuable materials.

Supporting a Circular Economy

Sustainable Systems

Electrical waste contains reusable materials such as copper, aluminium, steel and rare earth metals. When disposed of correctly, these materials can be recovered and reintroduced into manufacturing supply chains.
By choosing responsible WEEE recycling, you help:

✔ Reduce landfill waste
✔ Lower carbon emissions
✔ Conserve natural resources
✔ Support UK sustainability targets

Prevent hazardous substances from contaminating ecosystems
We are committed to playing our role in building a cleaner, more sustainable future

What Items Do You Collect Under WEEE Recycling?

We collect a wide range of electrical and electronic equipment, including computers, monitors, printers, photocopiers, cables, small kitchen appliances, and large domestic items such as fridges and washing machines. If it has a plug, battery, or circuit board, it can usually be classed as WEEE and collected for recycling.

Do You Provide Waste Transfer Notes Or Certificates Of Recycling?

Yes. Every WEEE collection comes with the required documentation, including Waste Transfer Notes or Hazardous Waste Consignment Notes if applicable. These confirm your items have been collected, processed, and recycled in line with all current UK waste management legislation.

Can You Collect From Both Businesses And Households?

Absolutely. We work with commercial clients who need regular or one-off collections as well as private households looking to dispose of old or broken electricals. Our vehicles and team are equipped to handle WEEE collections of all sizes safely and efficiently.

How Do You Ensure Data Security When Collecting IT Equipment?

We understand the importance of data protection. Any data-bearing devices such as computers, hard drives, or phones can be wiped or destroyed according to recognised data security standards before recycling. Certificates of data destruction can also be provided upon request.

What Happens To The Waste After Collection?

After we collect your items, everything is taken to an authorised treatment facility. There, materials are dismantled, sorted, and processed for recycling. Components such as metals, plastics, and glass are recovered and reused, while hazardous parts like batteries or circuit boards are handled separately in compliance with environmental regulations.
