Consumers ‘dump old electrical goods rather than recycle them’

Graveyard of Electrical G 001 Consumers dump old electrical goods rather than recycle them

The Guardian is reporting that:

"Old electrical items are being thrown out with household rubbish because many people don't know how to recycle them, a new survey reveals today"

The research by the consumer group also found almost three-quarters of those questioned admitted to hoarding products that were broken and in need of repair or simply no longer used. The items routinely left abandoned by householders in their attics and lofts were video recorders, radios, irons, kettles, digital cameras and DVD players.

But where and how do you recycle old electrical goods ? ?
