Where to recycle your battery?

DON’T TRASH IT

If your battery is damaged, contact the manufacturer. If it has reached the end of its life:

  • Never throw it in a waste or curbside recycling bin
  • Take it to a local battery recycling center
  • Always follow regulations when disposing your battery

RECYCLE IT

Recycle your portable rechargeable batteries to conserve natural resources and to prevent them from entering the solid waste stream. They can be recycled by depositing them into specifically designed battery collection boxes at major retailers in the U.S. and Canada.
