What Types of Batteries Can Be Recycled?
The types of batteries are different and they each need to be handled differently as well. Types of batteries include:
- Lead-Acid Batteries – Lead acid batteries are found in automobiles, trucks, motorbikes, marine, and battery back up systems. These kinds of batteries have lead and some other materials that can be recycled.
- Automotive Batteries – Batteries of vehicle, 4WD, trucks, vans and motorbikes can be considered for recycling. The worth will depend on the type of battery, its weight and market conditions.
- Industrial Batteries – Industrial companies use forklifts, equipment, machinery, battery backup systems etc. which have batteries and larger quantities can be discussed with us individually.
- Marine Batteries – Old marine and boat batteries could be eligible for recycling based on the type of battery.
- Rechargeable and Lithium Batteries – These batteries are not handled in the same manner as lead-acid batteries. If there are lithium-ion batteries, damaged batteries and unusual batteries, get in touch with us.
What Is a Scrap Battery Worth?
Scrap batteries don’t all have one universal price tag. What you might be able to earn will vary based on the following criteria:
- Battery type
- Weight of the batteries
- Quantity
- Material that could be recycled
- Market conditions at the time
- Condition of the batteries
- Collection needs
Lead acid batteries, for example, have valuable metals that could be recycled, making them worth more than smaller household batteries.
To get an estimate of how much your batteries might be worth, provide information regarding the type, estimated quantity, and location of your batteries.
It could also be helpful when providing an estimate for large quantities of batteries.
