Image of RBRC How To Recycle Batteries Poster What About Batteries? - Call2Recycle?? will provide free-of-charge drop-off boxes to any non-residential entity for the collection and recycling of their own rechargeable batteries. This means schools.  All one has to do is sign up online at http://www.call2recycle.org.  Schools can participate in the Call2Recycle?? program without being advertised as a public drop-off location if they do not want to listed as such.  Since everything is free of charge, the MCMUA is encouraging every school, business and/or public agency to request a drop-off box for its office or work site. Click here for more information about the proper management of all batteries types, not just rechargeables.
