RBRC only recycles rechargeable, dry cell batteries. The good news is in 1996, U.S. legislation was signed that required alkaline manufacturers to phase out the use of mercury in their batteries. For more information about alkaline battery recycling, please contact the alkaline industry or your local community solid waste department.
