Car Battery Recycling Tips

Recycling a car battery is one way of saving money on battery replacement. However, this recycling task should be initiated with utmost care. An automotive battery contains about 21 pounds of lead, three pounds of plastic and one gallon of sulfuric acid. These items are very toxic and dangerous if not handled properly.

If you want to recycle your old car battery, the best way to do is to drop it off at recycling centers that accept scrap car batteries. You can also bring your old lead-acid batteries to the AAA Great Battery Roundup that is a perfect time to get rid of old batteries. AAA offices from all over the United States set up collection sites for dead car batteries and perform free automobile battery checks. Roundups are also held annually in the U.S. and Canada to commemorate Earth Day. The collected batteries are then recycled into a new one and some of the revenues from recycling those batteries are given to environmental groups.

If you are not a do-it-yourself person, you can seek the assistance of automotive repair businesses that have facilities in recycling car batteries. Many automotive repair shops accept dead car batteries. Make sure that these shops really recycle the batteries and not trashing them.
