There are several options for disposing of hazardous materials such as batteries and electronics without following proper procedures. Many retailers will accept hazardous items in exchange for a store credit. Additionally, some municipalities hold periodic 'household hazardous waste day' events where citizens can dispose of their household hazardous materials in a safe, environmentally-friendly manner. If neither of these options are available, you can contact your local solid waste management agency to find out about other alternatives for disposal. Finally, there are private companies who specialize in the removal and/or recycling of many types of potentially dangerous waste materials which may be cost-effective solutions in your case.

Hazardous waste materials like batteries and electronics can be disposed of by dropping them off at an hazardous waste collection center, or if there is none near you, take them to a local fire station. Make sure to ask the fire department what types of materials they accept before you make the trip. Additionally, some cities have “drop off” programs where you can take hazardous waste items to be properly discarded without charge.
