Dispose Of Duracell Aa Batteries

Duracell is owned by Proctor and Gamble, an American company that got its start in the early 1800s manufacturing and selling soap products. Today, Duracell produces batteries and power solutions for many different applications. The company's all-purpose and rechargeable batteries are widely available at local retailers. Applications include power for flashlights, cameras, radios and other small products. Duracell AA all-purpose and rechargeable batteries are cylindrical in shape and must be disposed of or recycled properly.


Instructions


1. Dispose of general purpose and alkaline Duracell batteries in normal household trash. Check the label to confirm the battery's composition.


2. Do not dispose of large amounts of alkaline batteries together, as batteries that are not completely depleted of power may come into contact with each other and cause sparks.


3. Recycle Duracell AA rechargeable batteries. Call your local waste management center for battery recycling procedures in your area.


4. Check with local businesses where batteries are sold to see if they accept batteries for recycling.
