Removing batteries before recycling is a small but essential step in the e-waste disposal process. Batteries can leak harmful chemicals if not handled properly, posing risks to both the environment and recycling facilities.
Here’s a simple guide to safely remove batteries before recycling:
Turn Off and Unplug: Make sure your device is powered off and disconnected from any power sources.
Locate the Battery: For most electronics, batteries are easily accessible from the back or bottom panel.
Use Proper Tools: Use a screwdriver or tool designed for your device to carefully remove the battery.
Store Safely: Place the removed batteries in a plastic bag or special battery container to prevent leakage or damage.
Bring Them to Us: EcoSecure Solutions accepts batteries for responsible recycling!
PRO TIP: Avoid using metal tools directly on batteries to prevent short-circuiting.
By taking this extra step, you’re making a big impact on safe recycling. Thank you for doing your part!
