Recycle Your Old Vibrator

Buying a spanking new vibrator from Ricky.com and want to get rid of your old one?

The good news is that all rechargeable vibrators can now be recycled to help save our planet.

Hopefully one day all sex toys will use rechargeable batteries so we can bid farewell to the enormous waste caused by single use batteries.

How to recycle your vibrator

First, give it a good wash down, and then take it to your nearest recycling centre.

Why should I recycle my vibrator?

Unwanted electrical equipment is the UK’s fastest growing type of waste. 

Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle, electrical equipment will end up in landfill where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and human health.

To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled, it is now marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Please do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked with the crossed out wheeled bin symbol) in your bin.
