I’m dying under a mountain of unused charging cables -many not working -ethernet cables, scart items and old electronic equipment. I was going to bundle them all up and take to UK where electrical stores have an obligation to accept them for recycling. Is there anything similar in Spain -can I just dump them at MediaMarkt?  Also do you know anywhere that will accept used but still usable bedding such as sheets, pillows etc?  I was going to leave these near charbolas in Nijar -but they seem to have disappeared recently

Dont know about the cables etc, but I am sure 1 of the many animal shelters would like the bedding stuff

Thanks - I’ll look at the animal charitie for the bedding. I’m pretty sure there will/should be a way of recycling electrical as the U.K. provision stems from an old EU directive they haven’t got round to abolishing yet!

Your local ayuntimento recycling center should have proper facilities.
