closeHousehold batteries of any size including battery packs from electrical items are suitable for recycling.
Where?
Batteries should be brought to a Civic Amenity Site or lots of shops and supermarkets who sell batteries will have a collection point
Check the Waste Services Locator on this site for further details.
Why?
When you recycle anything with a plug or a battery you are helping to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill.
Batteries generally contain hazardous components and therefore need to be disposed of correctly.
Most supermarkets will have battery boxes where you can leave your used batteries for free.
If you use a lot of batteries why not try using rechargeable ones instead.
