Battery campaign logo with battery and recycling logo

The HMMF accepts all alkaline, rechargeable and button cell batteries for recycling or disposal, including lead acid batteries (including auto and E-bike batteries), lithium ion (Li-Ion), lithium primary, lithium polymer (Li-Po), nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd), and nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries. The terminals on all rechargeable, lithium, and batteries larger than 9 volts MUST be taped with clear packaging tape (thicker than regular scotch tape) so that we can clearly read the labels and to reduce the risk of sparking a fire.

Dead batteries should be stored in a cool and dry area in a plastic or cardboard container. For your safety, the terminals on all rechargeable, lithium, and batteries larger than 9 volts MUST be taped with clear packaging tape (thicker than regular scotch tape) so that we can clearly read the labels and to reduce the risk of sparking a fire.

Batteries can be disposed of at:
