It’s good for you, good for residents, and good for the environment.
In fact, it’s just as important to recycle used rechargeable batteries and old cell phones as it is to recycle plastic and aluminum. The free Call2Recycle™ program makes it possible! And we adhere to federal and state rechargeable battery recycling laws, so you can rest assured that your community and your public agency are both compliant.

We make it easy for public agencies to recycle too! From police and fire departments to government agencies and hospitals, Call2Recycle is the free and easy solution to recycling. In fact, more than 6,000 communities and public agencies have already joined our program and are helping to keep their communities clean, healthy, and safe for everyone.

Step 1: Sign up online Once you sign up, we will send collection boxes with pre-paid, pre-addressed shipping labels, safety instructions and plastic bags for used rechargeable batteries and old cell phones. Community recycling centers open to the public will be listed on our zip code locator and toll-free helplines to encourage residents to recycle. (Public Agencies will not be listed.)

Step 2: Start collecting When residents turn in their old rechargeable batteries and cell phones, place them individually in the Call2Recycle plastic collection bag, and then into the box. If you're running low, click here to order more boxes or bags (or tape battery terminals with non-conductive electrical tape if you don’t have plastic bags). Use our promotional materials to help get the word out to your community.

Step 3: Ship the box Once your box is full, ship it the recycling facility. Make sure that each battery is bagged (if plastic bags are unavailable, cover battery terminals with tape – electrical, duct or masking). Remember: ONE rechargeable battery or ONE cell phone with battery per bag only. We pay for the shipping and recycling costs and send you a new box.
