Environmental Health Services
The first step towards recycling batteries right is to consider your options for reducing your battery consumption by using rechargeable batteries. Compared to single-use alkaline batteries, rechargeable batteries last longer, cost less and reduce waste and environmental contamination. Rechargeable batteries can be reused up to 1,000 times, so they will quickly pay for themselves even with the added cost of a wall charger!
In San Mateo County, residents have several options for battery recycling:
If you live in a single-family home, condominium, townhome or duplex, your hauler may offer a household battery pick-up option. Click on your hauler for more information on battery recycling.
Select apartment complexes offer orange recycling battery buckets provided by waste haulers. Don’t have one? Ask your property manager about getting one where you live.
Make an appointment online or call 650-372-6200 to drop off batteries and other household hazardous waste (HHW) for free.
