Battery Recycling

 

Recycling Common Household Batteries and Button Batteries

Today's standard household batteries (the AA's, AAA's, C's, D's, and 9-volts that you pick up at the supermarket or drug store) have been re-engineered so that the components in them are of low toxicity, making them safe to dispose of with your normal trash. But consider this . . . If you're using more than a dozen or so disposable batteries per year you can probably save a lot of money by going to rechargeable batteries.  

Rechargeable Batteries include the ones found in Computers, Tablets, Cell Phones, and other electronics.  Please call the location for details and restrictions.
