• We cannot remove dishwashers or washing machines if there is excess water still in the pipes.

Please make sure all of these requirements in the checklist are met as we are unable to refund on this service.

My new product is faulty

We’ll sort it for you.

It’s worth noting that all our new products come with at least 12 months warranty. You can contact us direct to return a faulty product but we often find it’s useful for you to contact the manufacturers helpline first, they can help you diagnose the fault and try to resolve it on the call – we find that over 50% of returns enquiries can be resolved over the phone. If they can’t they’ll give you a fault reference number. They can often resolve issues quickly without the need for further action.

How to return a product to us:
Where possible we recommend contacting the manufacturer helpline first and obtain a fault reference number. If an engineer has visited already and you have a reference number from them please provide this as part of your return request, while this isn’t necessary it does help speed up the process.

WEEE information for the Republic of Ireland

In full compliance with the WEEE Regulations, we will happily take back Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment where equivalent replacement goods have been purchased from our website. Environmental Management costs, where applicable, will be applied to the retail price of new electrical and electronic. We will accept waste batteries of the type sold by us without purchase at our return centre listed below.

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is taken back free of charge on a one-for-one, like-for-like basis. Waste batteries including rechargeable batteries are taken back free of charge. You are not obliged to make any purchase when returning old batteries. Each local authority must also accept household WEEE and small batteries free of charge at its recycling facilities. All WEEE and waste batteries must be recycled and should not be placed in any of your household wheelie bins. Make sure you always recycle all your old electrical goods and batteries.

As Buy it Direct are based in the UK and are distance selling into the Republic of Ireland, it does not make environmental sense for us to recover WEEE back to the UK. Therefore the facility outlined below has been made available for use by our customers in the Republic of Ireland.

The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. Much of the UK's WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health.

Take Back and disposal Instructions

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations (SI 149 of 2014) and Waste Batteries regulations S.I. No. 349 of 2014 have been put in place to ensure that products are recycled using best available treatment, recovery and recycling techniques to ensure human health and high environmental protection. When you have finished with a WEEE product, please do not put in any of your domestic wheelie bins as it will not be recycled. Please use one of the following disposal options instead: When you purchase a product you may hand the old equivalent product back to the retailer. They should accept it as a requirement under the WEEE Regulations (S.I. No. 149 of 2014). In our case, as we are a distance selling retailer, we have made all of the facilities on the link below available to our customers and will collect the WEEE within 15 days of delivery of the new product. To arrange collection please call us on 01 255 2070. Or you can take the WEEE to your local Civic Amenity Site (consumers only, businesses must call us for collection) and deposit it in the dedicated WEEE and waste battery area.

All of the above options enable the product and the batteries to be treated in accordance with the WEEE Regulations (S.I. No 149 of 2014 and S.I. No 349 of 2014) Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and waste batteries must never be placed in any of your household wheelie bins. WEEE is taken back free of charge at the address below on a one-for-one like-for-like basis. There is a bin for small batteries at the address below. Local authority civic amenity facilities also take back WEEE and waste batteries free of charge. WEEE and waste battery recycling is free.

Battery Regulations

Recycling is one way we help the environment. We dispose of used batteries separately from other waste, using our takeback, collection and recycling facilities. We have a collection point at each of our premises that supply batteries for small electrical items. We keep a comprehensive record of our batteries' collection, recovery, and new life. We carefully manage where our batteries go, using a well-established partner Ecobat to control the collection of end-of-life batteries.
