Radiators

If you have an electric oil-filled radiator that is in good working order, you can donate it to a local reuse organisation. You can also take it to the Revive Leeds re-use shop at the Kirkstall or Seacroft recycling centre. If you are replacing a broken electric radiator, the retailer supplying your new appliance should offer you a take back service. You can recycle your electric radiator by taking it to your nearest recycling centre. If you are unable to do this, you can book a bulky waste collection online. If it is a radiator from a central heating system, you need to take it to your nearest recycling centre, where you can put it in the scrap metal container.

Radios

If you have a radio that is in good working order, you can donate it to a local reuse organisation. You can also take it to the Revive Leeds re-use shop at the Kirkstall or Seacroft recycling centre. If you are replacing a broken radio, the retailer supplying your new appliance should offer you a take back service. Alternatively, you can recycle your radio by taking it to your nearest bring site with a WEEE bank (see W for a list of sites) or to your nearest recycling centre, where you can put it in the small electrical waste container.
