We use wheeled equipment to avoid unnecessary lifting, delivering bulky product can be awkward.
Please clear our access route up to your door and through your property.

Whilst we undertake to take all reasonable care, at times when manoeuvring items we may drag, slide or push product. Polished surfaces, carpet or hard floors they stand on may mark, cushion flooring can sometimes lift / tear.

If any of this is a particular concern please aid us by protecting vulnerable surfaces prior to our arrival and point out to our staff where we need to take extra care.

Our installers are trained to carry out this work, however are not allowed to undertake any major carpentry, electrical or plumbing work beyond this on our behalf.
NB. It may also be necessary to turn off your water/electricity/gas supply when installing kitchen appliances, please check your stop tap works, turn off computers etc and be prepared for this. Other problems can sometimes show at this time i.e. if the ignition / thermocouple on your central heating boiler is faulty it may not restart if the gas supply has been interrupted, whilst we will do all we can to restart this for you, this is due to a fault within the boiler and is not caused by our turning the gas off.

Plumbing can be disturbed by us disconnecting / re-connecting product, we recommend you check after we have finished for leaks, minor leaks may not be noticeable straight away so please check again at regular intervals and let us know immediately should a leak start to occur

Please help us and carry out any preparation before we arrive, if you are able and it is safe to do so, please also disconnect and remove old product (Excl Gas), it would be appreciated if you would provide a smoke free environment for the duration of our visit to your home.

Recycling of electrical equipment

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge.

The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK.

Much of the UK’s WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health.

Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill.

Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites.

Hylands Ltd is obliged under these regulations to offer our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis in store when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us.
Alternatively we can arrange collection for just £10 upon supply of your replacement goods by our own transport at the time of delivery. 

For example, if a customer bought a new television from us we would accept their old television and prevent it going into a landfill site by disposing of it safely.

Customers must return their WEEE item to us within 28 days of purchasing their new item.

Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below:

Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005,
and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled.
