Old batteries lying around? Don’t throw them away! Batteries contain corrosive materials and heavy metals—lead-acid, cadmium and lithium-ion—that can contaminate the environment and affect human health.

​​

Common household, non-rechargeable, single-use alkaline and zinc AA, AAA, 9V or C or D cell batteries are accepted, as well as rechargeable and nickel cadmium batteries.

​

To recycle, please bring your batteries to the Southington Transfer Station or a Staples retail store.
