Lives Through E-Waste Recycling

We connect organisations with trusted, compliant WEEE (Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment) collection, reuse and recycling, while creating training, jobs, and second chances for young people in Greater Manchester.

Why it matters: you stay fully compliant and reduce costs; our learners gain real work experience in a live warehouse environment and help extend the life of valuable equipment through repair and refurbishment.

Charity-led WEEE Brokerage

We act as your single point of contact to arrange safe, efficient collections and certified treatment of electrical items. We match each job to approved treatment partners and routes (reuse where possible, recycling where necessary) and provide full documentation for your records. (That’s what a waste broker does  we coordinate the right service, the best value, and full compliance without locking you into one contractor.) 

Reuse First,
Then Recycle

Whenever viable, our team prepares items for repair, refurbishment, and re-use to keep products in circulation and cut carbon. Non-reusable equipment is dismantled and recycled through audited partners in line with WEEE rules and duty-of-care paperwork. 

End-to-End Compliance

 

From scheduling and consignment/transfer notes to downstream assurance and auditable reporting, we make compliance straightforward and transparent.

Why Work With a Charity Broker?

  • Social value built-in: every collection supports our 12-week WEEE skills programme for 16–30 year-olds — including health & safety, warehouse skills, refurbishment, and PAT testing.

  • Flexibility & best value: unlike single-supplier contracts, brokerage lets us find the right provider at the right price for each waste stream and location. meshwaste.com

  • Reuse impact you can show: we track items refurbished for re-use and materials recovered — ideal for ESG, CSR and procurement reporting.

  • Fast, reliable service: responsive scheduling and clear communication from first enquiry to final paperwork.
