skylorikeet Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Is taking it to the dump the only option? Or is there anywhere closer to home/more environmentally friendly I can take it?

Burbage Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 There is a London-wide 'Mobile Recycling Service' - a token gesture in the form of a van with bins in it - that pitches up roughly according to the timetable posted here:http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/10070/recycling/2534/mobile_recycling_centreYou can take printers and other small appliances to it. But where it says Dulwich Library, it means the car park of the Plough. It also says 10am to 1pm, but it's safer to assume 11am to noon.

jctg Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 My old printer fitted exactly into the hole in the electrical appliance recycling thing on Peckham Rye next to the cafe.

skylorikeet Posted January 3, 2015 Author Share Posted January 3, 2015 Thanks jctg, I'll see if that works for mine but it's quite a lump.

sillywoman Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I think Southwark will come and collect it if you call them - don't know how ethical their recycling is though?

DulwichFox Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Leave it outside with the rubbish bins with a note saying please take. Someone Might take it. or if you are lucky the weekly Refuse Collection Team might take it.

newtoedf Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 The dump isn't a landfill but a recycling centre - so if it won't fit in the small electrical appliances box you can just hand it in there for recycling. They do cartridge recycling too although you might be able to sell used cartridges on eBay or donate them to charity instead. I went for the first time just before christmas and thought it all seemed very well organised with very helpful staff.
