Battery Recycling

Corrosive materials. Heavy metals. Is your company responsible for filling our landfills with dangers like these? If you aren’t currently recycling the batteries your company uses, you are absolutely responsible for this problem, but there is something you can do about it now – contact SES Electronic Recycling.

Why Batteries Are a Problem for Your Company

Whether it’s an AA battery that powers the remote for the projector in your conference room or something much bigger, all batteries have materials inside them that contaminate the environment. Thrown in your dumpster, and at the very least, they’ll end up in a landfill, which would damage the environment. Wondering how? It’s pretty simple. The heavy metals inside the batteries react to the rain water that hits them once they reach the landfill. That reaction forms a toxic liquid that seeps into the water under the landfill. That liquid, in turn, contaminates the ground water, and damages your corporate water supply, the residential water supply, and even the water supply plants need to grow well in San Diego.

As if the environmental effects weren’t bad enough, there are financial consequences if your company is caught improperly disposing of batteries. You could be looking at some serious fines in addition to the damage you may have already done to the environment.
