our vision

At The Appliance Recycling Group, our vision is to lead the transformation of the appliance industry towards a truly circular, low-carbon future. We partner with major retailers and manufacturers to maximise the reuse of appliances, extend product lifecycles, and significantly reduce environmental impact. By combining cutting-edge logistics, expert testing, and responsible refurbishment, we deliver scalable reuse solutions that align with sustainability targets and ESG commitments. As a trusted national partner, we are committed to reducing carbon emissions at every stage of the process – making reuse the standard, not the exception. Together, we can build a future where appliances live longer, waste less, and contribute to a cleaner, greener planet.

WEEE REUSE

At The Appliance Recycling Group, reuse is at the core of our mission to create a cleaner, more sustainable UK. As one of the nation’s only WEEELABEX and Carbon Neutral accredited appliance recycling organisations, we specialise in turning end-of-life electricals into fully functional, high-quality products. Every item is rigorously tested, professionally repaired, and certified for safe reuse – because we believe refurbished shouldn’t mean second best. With a national footprint of 14 sites and the capacity to handle over 60,000 appliances annually, we deliver industry-leading reuse solutions at scale. From takeback schemes to warranty returns, we provide seamless services to some of the UK’s largest electrical retailers, manufacturers, and local authorities.

Trusted by Leading Brands

The Appliance Recycling Group has successfully handled and restored appliances from a wide range of the UK’s most recognised manufacturers. From premium washing machines and fridges to ovens and dishwashers, we’ve processed thousands of units originally built by household-name brands—giving each a new lease of life through our expert reuse process. Every appliance is subjected to a meticulous series of safety, functionality, and aesthetic checks.

Our engineers carry out repairs, deep cleaning, and performance testing to ensure that every unit meets high standards before being returned to the market.

These are not second-rate goods—they are fully refurbished appliances built to serve reliably in homes across the country. We’ve worked with appliances of all types, models, and specifications, from flagship lines to discontinued stock and customer returns. Our ability to restore these products to like-new condition not only diverts valuable materials from landfill but supports environmental targets and social impact initiatives nationwide.

By making reuse scalable, efficient, and high quality, The Appliance Recycling Group continues to lead the UK in giving appliances a second life – wherever they come from.

WE ALSO COLLECT

REUSE

At our organisation, “Reuse”—or REEE—signifies that an appliance has been expertly restored to a condition where it is no longer classified as waste. Each item undergoes rigorous, industry-leading testing protocols to guarantee both operational safety and functionality, ready to begin its second life. Our commitment to excellence drives every stage of the process.

We challenge our teams with a simple but powerful standard: Would you proudly use this in your own home? Only equipment that meets our highest aesthetic and performance criteria is approved for resale or donation.

From responsible collection and processing to energy-efficient recovery and repurposing, we apply the highest operational standards to minimise waste and lower emissions.

RECYCLING

At The Appliance Recycling Group, we partner with approved recycling providers who meet the highest environmental standards. When appliances cannot be reused, they are processed in large-scale facilities where items like fridges and washing machines are broken down into small fragments known as recyclates.

These fragments are then separated using advanced techniques involving magnets, air, and water to create clean, high-quality material streams. We work closely with our recycling partners to maximise recovery and ensure these materials are suitable for reintroduction into the manufacturing of new appliances.
