Batteries - Household - Rechargeable (up to 5 lbs)

Use the Battery Network (formerly Call2Recycle) Battery Drop-off Location Finder for safe recycling of single-use, rechargeable, e-bike, cell phones, and high energy batteries (300 Watt hours or more tool batteries and include these brands).

• Do not dispose of rechargeable batteries in trash or recycling containers as they are a fire hazard.
• Safety: Tape terminals of Li-ion, Ni-Cd, NiMH & SSLA of batteries using clear packing, electrical or duct tape.
  • If using non-clear tape, keep the battery brand and chemistry visible.
• Even though used batteries might not have the energy to power a device, they can still carry enough charge to spark if their terminals come into contact with metal or other batteries.
