Read the Safety & Handling Information

• Contact an auto repair store or garage. Most of them accept old batteries for recycling even if you didn't purchase the battery there.

• Contact a retailer that sells new lead-acid batteries. The majority of retail outlets that sell lead-acid car batteries also collect used batteries for recycling.

• If you cannot find a retailer or installer that will accept your battery, contact a recycling center or the sanitation department near your residence; they should be able to locate a hazardous waste facility or drop-off site for safe disposal.

• Contact your local rubbish collection company; they may have specific hazardous waste pickup standards and dates.
