When does a WEEE full service make sense?

A WEEE full service makes sense for your company if one of the following points applies:

  • You sell electronic devices under your own brand.

  • You rebrand electrical appliances.

  • You import electrical appliances from abroad.

  • You are offering the electrical appliance for sale in Germany for the first time.

  • You sell the device from abroad directly to Germany via distance selling.

Your duties in relation to the ear foundation

The obligations are primarily bureaucratic in nature. However, high costs can also arise if you receive an allocation for the disposal of electrical appliances from a recycling centre from the ear foundation. As part of our full service, we take care of all of the following obligations for you.

Registration with the Stiftung ear

Before you can sell electrical appliances, you must register with the Stiftung ear. The registration requirement applies to both B2B and B2C appliances. We can take care of the registration for you.

Insolvency-proof guarantee

When registering, you must provide an insolvency-proof guarantee. This serves to ensure that the disposal of your electrical appliances placed on the market can also be financed if your company becomes insolvent. You can obtain this guarantee from us.

Quantity reports

Every month, you must report the types of equipment you have placed on the market to the Stiftung ear. We will forward the quantity reports to the Stiftung ear on your behalf.

Authorised representative

If you do not have a branch in Germany, you must appoint an authorised representative. We will be happy to provide you with an authorised representative.

collection coordination

Manufacturers must collect the containers provided by local authorities that contain waste electrical equipment upon allocation. The manufacturer then bears the costs of the entire disposal process. Our full service also includes collection coordination, which we take care of at no additional cost.
