I have lots of old devices lying around with rechargeable batteries that I want to get rid of. Cell phones, laptops, cordless vacuum cleaners, etc. Everyone says not to throw these things in the garbage but I don’t know where or how to recycle them. My city only recycles plastic and aluminum. What should I do?
does your city have a dumpster day where you can get rid of unusual stuff contact your city rep.
take them to the city DUMP…………………….
Go to target, to the customer service counter, there should be a box which has two sides. One is for old cell phones, the other for batteries. IKEA also has a similar recycling program!
Take them to your local Radio Shack. No worries. If they are Alkaline batteries, then just throw them away.
