Our nationwide network ensures that collected materials are transported safely to licensed recycling centres, where they are dismantled and processed responsibly. This includes separating plastics, metals, and batteries to maximise recovery and minimise waste
With increasing scrutiny around vape disposal and the ban on single-use vapes, businesses are under pressure to act responsibly. VapeCycle makes it easy to stay ahead, offering a structured, compliant approach to vape takeback and recycling that protects both your business and the environment.
We provide a range of recycling and disposal services for vapes and related equipment.
This includes the following waste types:
Safe collection and recycling of single use vapes, helping tackle the growing issue of millions of discarded vapes.
We handle refillable and reusable vapes, ensuring components are separated and processed correctly for maximum material recovery.
Specialist disposal for residual e-liquids, preventing contamination and ensuring safe handling of chemical waste.
Secure management of embedded and removable lithium batteries, reducing fire risk and ensuring compliant recycling.
In the UK, vapes are classified as electrical waste and must not be disposed of in general rubbish. Businesses are responsible for ensuring safe storage, separation of batteries, and correct disposal through licensed providers. Items should be kept in designated containers and never mixed with standard waste. While some consumers rely on public recycling centres, businesses must follow stricter compliance routes to manage their vape waste safely and legally.
Getting started with VapeCycle is straightforward. We’ll assess your requirements, supply the appropriate containers, and arrange a schedule that works for you. Whether you need regular pickups or ad-hoc collections, our flexible service adapts to your operations. Offering both vape and e-cig recycling services, we can cater to various product types.

Please note, we do not provide services for household waste and recycling. For safe disposal, ensure you remove the battery and use designated recycling points.
