The ‘wheelie bin’ symbol is known as the 'Crossed-out wheelie
bin Symbol'. When this symbol is marked on a
product/batteries, it means that the product/batteries should
not be disposed of with your general household waste. Only
discard electrical/electronic/battery items in separate
collection schemes, which cater for the recovery and recycling
of materials contained within. Your co-operation is vital to
ensure the success of these schemes and for the protection of
the environment. For your nearest disposal facility, visit
