What must be considered when disposing of old equipment?

Electrical and electronic equipment that has become waste is referred as old equipment. Owners of old equipment must dispose it separately from unsorted municipal waste. In particular, old appliances do not belong in household waste, but in special collection and return systems.

Separate disposal of a household appliance avoids possible negative effects on the environment and human health caused by improper disposal. It also enables the recycling of the materials that make up the appliance, which in turn brings significant savings in energy and resources.
