Safe disposal of batteries.

[spidermama]

I usde to be able to put these in the recycle box but they won't take them any more. How shall I throw away my batteries.

I usually use rechargables, but there are some disposables still around and I need to get rid.

Me too

I have a small pile by the sink

If you only have small quantities then you can put them in the ordinary household waste.

Larger quantities should be disposed of correctly - try your local tip, they may have a collection point.

ds2's teacher collects them in at school and disposes of them. Where to, I have no idea!

Our local dump has a battery recycle bin. I've started using the rechargable ones as we were going through that many.

I've been saving mine for agers,intent on finding out what to do with 'em too.

My local Curry's has a collection box by the batteries.
