Secure, safe battery recycling solutions

Through our Ecobatt partnership we deliver purpose-built battery collection systems for supermarkets, schools, offices, factories and retail outlets. Containers are visually appealing to encourage participation and clearly signed to reduce contamination. Options range from discreet desk-side buckets to staffed drop-off stations, making recycling simple for staff, students and customers. We handle installation, servicing and disposal logistics while providing training materials and promotional assets to boost engagement. These turnkey workplace solutions protect people and property, promote corporate responsibility, and create convenient pathways for batteries to be safely recovered and recycled rather than entering general waste streams.

Frequently asked questions

What types of batteries do you accept for recycling?
We accept all single-use and rechargeable batteries including alkaline, NiMH, NiCd, lithium-ion cells, button cells, lead-acid, and EV/storage batteries. Some streams (e.g. large EV packs, industrial batteries) require specialist handling and packaging. All batteries are routed to licensed processors for safe treatment, material recovery and compliant disposal. Confirm accepted types with your local collection service before drop-off.
Yes. EV and large-format lithium batteries require specialist handling. We offer purpose-built carrying cases, trained crews, risk assessments and transport protocols to safely move packs to licensed treatment facilities. Each EV pack undergoes inspection, isolation and appropriate packaging. Compliance with transport regulations and emergency-response planning ensure safe, traceable movement from collection site to processor.
Collected batteries follow a chain-of-custody to licensed recycling partners. Small batteries are bulked, sorted and chemically or metallurgically processed to recover metals like lithium, cobalt, nickel, lead and zinc. Lead-acid is reclaimed via smelting and acid recycling. EV packs receive staged disassembly, cell recovery or safe disposal. All transport uses compliant packaging, manifests and licensed carriers to meet regulations.
We supply pickup records, manifests, chain-of-custody forms and final recycling or disposal certificates. For hazardous or large-format batteries, we include ADR-compliant documentation and risk assessments. These records support client audits, environmental reporting and regulatory compliance. Digital reporting and dashboards can be provided to integrate battery-diversion metrics into sustainability programs.
Cost varies by battery type, volume and required specialist handling. Small office buckets and standard collections have low per-unit costs; large-format EV batteries, fireproof storage and specialised transport incur higher fees reflecting handling and regulatory requirements. We provide site audits and transparent quotes, plus ROI guidance where recovery or reuse options can offset costs for high-volume generators.
