UK Vape Recycling & Takeback Scheme
Recycle your used vape devices responsibly with ePuffer and help reduce electronic waste, protect the environment, and support a cleaner future for our planet.
Why Vape Recycling Matters
Millions of vape devices are discarded every year across the UK. Many contain lithium batteries, plastics, metals, and electronic components that should never be thrown in general household waste. Responsible vape recycling helps reduce landfill waste, prevents environmental contamination, and allows valuable materials to be recovered for reuse.
What Can Be Recycled
- Vape devices
- Rechargeable vape kits
- Pods and cartridges
- Coils
- Vape batteries

Local Recycling Options
Many UK supermarkets, vape shops, and council recycling centres provide dedicated vape and battery recycling bins for local disposal.
Additional Recycling Options
