Used Battery Recycling

How many batteries does your home go through each month? Take a moment to inventory the devices in your home that are powered by batteries. Remote controls. Alarm clocks. Children’s toys. Now stop and think about what you do with those batteries when they no longer work. If you’re like most people, you simply dump them in the trash. That’s not only a serious problem for you, it’s a serious problem in the San Diego as well.

Why Used Batteries Are a Problem

Batteries are a serious problem when they end up in the trash. Your trash company takes your household trash to the local landfill. Once there, the corrosive materials inside batteries are allowed to leach into the soil, and in turn, they end up in the ground water. For you, that could spell a serious problem down the road, as at some point, even the water in your home could become contaminated if the problem of batteries in landfills isn’t dealt with immediately.
