Lithium Battery Fires Are Threatening Recycling as We Know It

Yikes! A reminder of how dangerous lithium batteries can be to recycling facilities and workers! Batteries and e-waste should never be placed inside curbside carts; take them to a nearby hazardous waste facility or drop-off site. Bag used batteries in a clear plastic bag and place them on top of your recycle cart on your service day. Check our RE:Source guide for local options: https://bit.ly/3ujjJAq

People are tossing old electronics in the recycling bin, and they're lighting on fire and exploding at municipal recycling centers at an alarming rate.
