How can you recycle disposable vapes ahead of ban?
It will become illegal to sell single-use vapes from June 1 - but how can you safely get rid of the ones you currently have? A UK-wide ban on disposable vapes comes into force this weekend, meaning the brightly-coloured nicotine sticks will be stripped from shelves across the country. The move is a bid to stop youngsters getting hooked while also protecting the environment. As of Sunday, June 1, a new law will be in place, making it illegal to sell e-cigs. Suppliers caught flouting the new rule will be issued with a fixed penalty notice of £200 as an alternative to criminal prosecution for a first offence. The penalty for each following offence would increase by £200 each time. If they don't accept the fine, or in instances where an enforcement officer does not consider a fine appropriate, the offender can be fined a maximum of £5,000, sentenced to two years in prison, or both. The new law means merchants can get into big bother if they continue selling disposable puffers after this weekend, but the same rules do not apply to vapers themselves. Selling them is illegal, but using them is not. This has led to people "stockpiling" their favourite vapes, with sales of the most popular flavours more than doubling in recent weeks ahead of the ban. Whether you have been stocking up ahead of the ban, or just have some lying about your home, knowing how to properly get rid of them is crucial. There are more than 11 fires a week linked to the unsafe disposal of vapes, and there has been a 348 per cent surge in e-cig-related blazes in the UK between 2020 and 2025. Research has found that only 17 per cent of people dispose of their vapes correctly, with many mistakenly believing you can just chuck them in the bin at home. However, they are classed as Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which has strict rules for disposal. The lithium-ion batteries within the devices can overheat and ignite when damaged or crushed, so this puts them at risk in your home, on the street, in bin lorries, or at waste management sites. And vapes that end up in landfill can leach battery acid, nicotine, and chemicals from the plastic into the environment. As WEEE waste is classed as hazardous or controlled waste, it must be disposed of separately from normal rubbish. If you are caught breaching your household waste duty of care, you can be fined up to £600 and it could void your home insurance if one catches fire in your bin. So disposing of vapes correctly isn't just better for the environment, it's better for you. Thankfully, there are a number of simple ways you can get rid of your nicotine sticks safely. According to the team at Recycle Your Electricals, it can be as simple as taking your vapes back to the store where you bought them. All retailers that sell them must accept your old e-cigs, making it as easy to recycle them as it is to buy them Certain local authorities collect electrical devices for recycling, either with your regular collection or by special arrangement. Contact your council to find out if that is possible where you live. Alternatively, you can take vapes to your local tip. All recycling centres have sections for electricals and batteries. If you are able to remove the battery, recycle it separately, if not, you can put the whole device in with the electrical recycling. Smaller recycling banks also often have a spot for electricals. This could be at your local superstore, in a car park, or even at a designated roadside stop. If you know of one such bank close to you, check out if they have electrical recycling facilities. Up to 80 per cent of vapes can be recycled, so making sure they don't just end up on landfill - or causing fires in your bin - is vital. To find your nearest vape recycling spot, you can put your postcode into Recycle Your Electricals ' handy checker. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Why you should never bin disposable vapes and how it could cost you £600
The selling of disposable vapes is to be completely banned both in store and online in the UK from June 1. In a bid to protect the environment and deter young people and kids from vaping, the colourful throwaway nicotine sticks are to be stripped from the shelves. The unsafe disposing of vape products is linked to more than 11 fires per week, and harmful chemicals inside the devices are polluting the country's rivers and streams. According to research, only 17 per cent of people dispose of their vapes correctly. While the new ban is designed to deter vape use, reports suggest that many people are either stockpiling disposable vapes or switching to reusable models, meaning the problems associated with binning old vapes is likely to persist in some manner at least. With this in mind, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEE) experts at are warning the public about the dangers of binning old vapes, which they say could even result in a £600 fine if you're not careful. Graham Matthews of said: 'The ban on disposable vapes is certainly a step in the right direction. However, it's concerning to see it hasn't had the desired effect with many people simply stockpiling or switching to reusable models. "While a reusable vape is still the preferred option, the lack of education surrounding correct disposal means we're likely to see vape-related bin and waste fires continue." So, why shouldn't you bin vapes, and how can you safely dispose of them? Here's what the experts had to say. Why shouldn't you bin vapes? Many people mistakenly believe that vapes can be tossed into their regular bin at home, but they're actually classed as Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which has strict rules for disposal. When vapes are disposed of in household bins, this can lead to fires in bin lorries and at waste management sites, which puts workers and the public at risk. Vapes contain lithium-ion batteries that can overheat and ignite when damaged or crushed. If vapes enter bin lorries or waste management facilities, they're at risk of catching fire. Data shows that vape-related fires are on the rise in the UK, with a huge surge of 348 per cent between 2020 and 2025. Any vapes that end up in landfill can also leach battery acid, nicotine, and chemicals from the plastic into the environment, causing further damage. Can you be fined for putting a vape in household waste? WEEE waste is classed as hazardous or controlled waste that must be disposed of separately from usual waste to prevent environmental harm. And you can be fined up to £600 if you breach your household waste duty of care. It could also void your home insurance if vapes in your household bin cause a fire, as this could be classed as negligence, explained the WEEE experts. How to waste disposable vapes correctly The safest and easiest way to waste a disposable vape is to put it in a dedicated vape disposal bin, which can be found in many shops and supermarkets, or return it to a retailer. Many electrical and electronic shops accept used disposable vapes and will ensure they're recycled. If you can easily remove the battery, then you could separate it and take it to a local battery recycling point which can also be found in many shops and supermarkets. However, the way disposable vapes are made means it's difficult to separate the battery and materials in many single-use vapes, and disposing of them through the proper channels is advised.
