Independent Online What to do with a scrap car battery Independent Online But last weekend, a friend and I were chatting over a recalcitrant carburettor in his garage when I noticed a number of (obviously second-hand) car batteries in one corner.

I wrote this short article about car battery care

Of course, that includes what to do with your old scrap battery. After doing a little research, I found that for some really strange reason, drivers in the UK keep the old scrap car battery in their garage? this is really strange? when I asked them why they do this, they all replied with a similar answer.

The answer is that they are saving the old battery

in case they need it in the future. When i asked them why they say that, you never know when you might need one,”

But i explain that their battery is dead and only scrap, then they don’t believe me and still precede to keep it.

Your old car battery is actually worth a few pounds!

As a battery retailer, we collect the old batteries and then take them to the waste collection centre.

All of the waste scrap car battery journeys are covered by the “transfer of waste” regulations here in the UK and waste collection centres can only accept the scrap  battery delivery if they are officially registered with the government.

The Lead Acid Battery Recycling Revolution

Hey, fellow environmentalists! Today, I’m ecstatic to share some good news from our beautiful town of Halifax. Consider this: a world in which our planet’s health is protected and every action we take contributes to a greener, more sustainable future. Hold on to your hats, because right here in the UK, we are at the forefront of the recycling movement, particularly when it comes to lead-acid batteries.

Now you may be wondering,

“Lead acid batteries? Isn’t it just those weighty stuff in cars?” Oh, dear friend, they are much more! Lead-acid batteries power everything from our reliable vehicles to critical backup systems, making them indispensable in our daily lives. But what happens when these batteries approach the end of their life? That is where the beauty of recycling comes into play, and Halifax is doing an excellent job!

First and foremost,

Let us discuss why recycling lead-acid batteries is a major change for the environment. These batteries contain important elements such as lead, plastic, and sulfuric acid, but if not treated appropriately, they can be hazardous to our ecosystems. Imagine harmful chemicals oozing into our land and waterways—it’s not a good picture, right? But don’t worry; Halifax has it covered.

Our specialist recycling facilities give lead-acid batteries a new lease on life. Instead of ending up in landfills, where they can harm the environment, these batteries are professionally disassembled and their components repurposed to produce new items. It’s a win-win situation: we get to save valuable resources while reducing pollution and waste.

But wait—there’s more!

Recycling lead-acid batteries not only helps the environment, but it also benefits our local economy. We promote local companies and create jobs by investing in recycling infrastructure right here in Halifax. It demonstrates our community’s commitment to sustainability and success.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “That’s fine, but what can I do to help?” Fear not, dear reader, because you have the ability to make a difference right in your hands. Next time you find yourself with an old lead-acid battery, don’t throw it away; instead, bring it to one of our local recycling centres. You will not only be helping the environment, but you will also be supporting our local economy and paving the way for a better future in Halifax and beyond.

So there you have it, folks:

The Halifax lead-acid battery recycling revolution is in full swing, and we could not be more proud. Recycling these batteries benefits everyone concerned by conserving the environment and increasing the local economy. So let’s keep the momentum going and continue to lead the way towards a greener, more sustainable future. We can make a world of difference, one battery at a time.

The movement of waste battery products

in the UK is strictly regulated. if you are disposing of a single scrap car battery, then you can take it to your local council waste facility, where you can place it in a specially marked place. Please do not throw it away or in your household bin.
