The investigation is without a doubt the most important conducted in the country thus far, both in terms of the number of WEEE equipped with GPS tracking devices and the geographical coverage of the sample: it involves more than 200 appliances - including washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, dryers, and freezers - that should reach a proper treatment plant after being given to the public collection centre or distributors by citizens.

According to a series of European studies performed earlier this year by members of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Forum, mobile phones rank fourth among small EEE goods most commonly hoarded by consumers. According to the studies, the typical home in Portugal, the Netherlands, Italy, Romania, and Slovenia, as well as a separate UK survey, has 74 e-products such as phones, tablets, computers, electric tools, hair dryers, toasters, and other appliances. Thirteen of them are being hoarded, nine are unused but functional, and four are broken. LED bulbs are at the top of the list of things that are most likely to be discarded. Italy leads the pack in terms of hoarded small kitchen and home equipment, computers, and tablets in households, with 29%.
