Here at getinthemix, we are serious about the environment and fully support the WEEE directive in the UK.
What is the WEEE Directive?
- The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations (2006 No. 3289) (WEEE) is a legislation designed to address the environmental impact of waste electrical and electronic equipment
- The regulations have been put in place to ensure that products are recycled using best available treatment, recovery and recycling techniques to ensure human health and high environmental protection

OK, i agree, but how do i go about disposing of my old electronic product when buying a new item for you?
- This service means that you can return waste electrical equipment to us when purchasing a new product from us under our distributor obligations. For example, if you buy a DJ Controller, we will collect your old DJ controller (like for like basis).
