Hi all,

I have a old powerchair that I would like to recycle/dispose of - its currently sitting in my living room taking up a lot of space. its approximately 11 years old.  I am unable to take it to the tip at the moment due to lockdown. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Maybe contact a mobility shop they may be able to refurb it 

    Also local council will normally come and collect items for disposal but they charge small amount check out you council website

    If its still in working order you could try and give it away on "feegle" or "gumtree" ?
