Edmonds Recycling - The Recycling Batteries

Easy and cost effective way to recycle all chemistry of batteries

Batteries
Our many years in the battery recycling business has helped us develop an easy and cost-effective way to recycle all chemistries of batteries including Alkaline, Ni-Cad, Lead-Acid and even Lithium. Because each chemistry of battery is recycled differently, each must be handled and sorted in a different manner to avoid cross-contamination. Our trained staff carefully identifies and separates each chemistry so that the batteries can be shipped to the correct recycling facility. Whether it is a pocketful, a truckload or one of our supplied collection containers, Edmonds will accept it.

Lead-Acid
As one of the biggest players on the west coast for recycling lead-acid automotive and sealed lead-acid batteries, we can offer very competitive purchase rates. Batteries are sent through a crusher and separator to recover pure lead which are remade into new batteries. Call 1-800-882-8850 or click here for pricing or pick-up. If you have any you may drop off at any one of our locations or call for pick-up.

Alkalines
As one of only a handful of companies in Canada that accept and recycle alkaline batteries, the Edmonds Recycling Battery Recycling Program is a breath of fresh air to those concerned about their environment. All of our alkalines are sent to a smelter and materials are separated to capture Zinc and Manganese. Steel casings and other materials produce residual slag which is then sold to make Portland cement.

Ni-Cad \ Ni-Mh
Working with the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation, some of our Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries are recycled with a percentage of profits going to various Canadian charities. The rest get smelted and the materials reclaimed. 99.99% of Cadmium from Ni-Cad batteries recycled is put back into the industry to make new batteries.

Rechargeable Lithium
Even the volatile lithium can be recycled through us. Lithium-Ion batteries contain cobalt which is reused to make new batteries for cell phones and laptops.
