10. Waste Electrical Equipment Regulations (WEEE)
Recycle your old electricals here! If you're buying a new electrical item, we will recycle your old one for free.
Please do not throw electrical equipment (including those items marked with the symbol below) in your bin. This is because the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires countries to maximise separate collection and environmentally-friendly processing of these items.
- 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 we do not recycle electrical items they will end up in landfill where hazardous substances leak out and cause soil and water contamination - harming wildlife and human health
In the UK, distributors including retailers must provide a system which allows all customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to recycle their old items free of charge. As a responsible retailer, we have met the requirements placed on us by offering all customers buying new electrical equipment free take-back of their old electricals on a like-for-like basis at our warehouse at the address below. Unwanted items must be returned within 28 days of purchasing your new product.
The items are to only be returned to our original dispatch warehouse at:
Wilco Motor Spares Ltd.
Unit D1/D2 Pinetrees Estate
Salhouse Road
Norwich
Norfolk
NR7 9BB

12. Returns Policy
Under the Consumer Contracts (information, cancellation and additional charges) Regulations 2015, you have the right to cancel your order within a 14-day Cooling-Off period, which commences the day after delivery was made. If you wish to exercise your right to cancel under these regulations, you must inform Wilco Direct of your intention to cancel the order by either email, telephone, fax or by post within the 14-day cooling off period.
Once you have informed Wilco Direct of your right to cancel, you must continue to take good care of the goods and retain possession of them until they are returned by yourself. You will be required to return the goods at your own cost, via an insured carrier and within 30 days. If the goods are returned within 30 days, in their original packaging and in a re-saleable condition, we will issue a full refund, less any delivery charges made.
If you are unable to arrange the return yourself, we will be pleased to do so, but a charge will be made for this, which we would deduct from any refund due. Delivery Charges will not be refunded as delivery is a service which is completed when the original delivery is made.
13. Faulty Goods
If the goods develop a fault within 28 days of delivery, please inform us immediately. We will arrange for those items to be collected and if they are confirmed to be faulty, we will be pleased to replace the item with a new one, or in the event of the same item no longer being available, an equivalent. You may wish to receive a refund instead, which we will be pleased to issue.
If the goods develop a fault between 28 days and 6 months from delivery, once again, please inform us immediately. We will arrange collection and repair of the item and will return the item to you when the repair is completed. If we are unable to carry out a repair on the item, we may choose to replace the item with a new one, or if the item is no longer available, with an equivalent.
If an item develops a fault after 6 months from date of delivery, please contact us and we will do our best to help.
