I'm cleaning out my workshop and have come across several orphaned rechargeable batteries. Are these rechargeable batteries recyclable like standard batteries?
Our Answer
Rechargeable batteries are recyclable, and there's probably a drop-off location for rechargeable batteries just minutes from your home.
The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation has established a network of collection points for rechargeable batteries with national retailers, and all you have to do to find a local participant who takes rechargeable batteries is visit www.call2recycle.org or call 1-877-2-RECYCLE.
Old cell phones have recyclable batteries too, and every item you bring in for recycling goes out to a state-of-the-art facility where the reusable contents are harvested for the production of stainless steel and new batteries.
