Why Some Items Cost More to Dispose Of

POPs (Upholstered Items)
Sofas, armchairs, and mattresses are classed as POPs — Persistent Organic Pollutants. By law they must be handled separately at licensed facilities, even if they look fine. This ensures chemicals and foams are disposed of safely.

WEEE (Electrical Appliances)
Fridges, freezers, and electrical items are classed as WEEE — Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. They contain gases, oils, or components that require specialist treatment and recycling.

Why it matters:
These rules are set by the Environment Agency. We’re fully licensed to transport and dispose of POPs and WEEE waste, and we’ll always provide a receipt to prove items were disposed of legally.
