Rechargeable Battery Recycling
DEC has submitted a report to the Governor and Legislature analyzing the results of the rechargeable battery collection and recycling program since implementation.
Fortunately, any retailer that sells covered rechargeable batteries or rechargeable battery containing products must accept used rechargeable batteries from NYS consumers for recycling. Rechargeable batteries contained in products that can be safely and easily removed, should be removed prior to the disposal of such products.

Consumers may find drop-off locations near them by visiting Call2Recycle, Interstate Batteries, or Harbor Freight.
Under the Law, manufacturers of covered rechargeable batteries or groups of collaborating manufacturers are responsible for financing the collection and recycling of all rechargeable batteries collected by retailers, as well as providing outreach and education to NYS consumers regarding the proper way to recycle rechargeable batteries.
