While there may be no such thing as a free lunch, there is such a thing as a free battery collection service.

Since its launch on July 1, BatteryBack now has more than 600 free battery collection points listed on its online site location map. Despite limiting trials to a maximum of ten sites for each organisation, we are registering at least 10 new sites every day.

As the scheme is currently open to all free service providers, we are also displaying non-WasteCare sites. To check out the locations of the sites nearest to you, simply go to www.batteryback.org and click on collections, enter your postcode and you will be offered ten of the nearest sites to you.

Whilst we prepare for the introduction of the Battery Recycling Regulations next year, we are providing a free treatment and recovery service to anyone willing to promote battery recycling. Roll up for free BatteryCan From now until the end of the year, WeeeCare will send two free 10kg BatteryCans to every WasteCare, PackCare or WeeeCare customer who asks.
