Can I recycle it?
Vapes are not collected as part of your recycling collection.
You can take them for recycling at all local Household Waste Recycling Centres.
If the battery is contained in the vape and cannot be removed then we advise that the whole thing go into a battery container at one of our HWRCs. If the battery is removeable then the battery would go into the battery container and the vape into the small electrical container.
