Battery recycling program returns July 18
The Golden Age Foundation will host a battery recycling service on Tuesday, July 18, in the Clubhouse 2 parking lot from 10 a.m.-noon. GRF ID is required.
GAF will collect approved batteries such as alkaline, carbon zinc, nickel cadmium (NiCd), nickel metal-hydride (NiMH), lithium ion (Li-Ion), lithium metal, silver oxide, button cell batteries and all other dry cell batteries.
This includes all household batteries, cell phone and laptop batteries and small, button-type batteries. Place each lithium battery in a separate bag to comply with recycling requirements.
It is very important for LWers to recycle batteries instead of throwing them in the trash to keep waste fees low and the planet clean. Note that this service is for residents household batteries only; no business batteries.
