Easy Collection and Best Prices for Batteries Australia
Most of our batteries can be disposed for recycling and not landfilling! JJ Scrap Metals supports the initiative and battery recycling program across Australia for the collection of used batteries, which can become a hazard if discarded incorrectly in the environment. Generally, batteries recycling is an activity which aims to reduce the number of used batteries from becoming a part of municipal waste. These batteries contain a lot of toxic chemicals and heavy metals which can raise concerns of water pollution and soil contamination.
Why Recycle Batteries?
Each year, millions of batteries reach the end of their working life across Australia. These batteries can end up in the landfills, with the incinerators leaking in the environment and posing serious health risk to the inhabitants. Moreover, recycling will not only prevent the health hazards, but statistically contribute to almost 50% of lead supply for various applications. With our services in door-to-door collection and transport of spent batteries, we collect both single-use batteries and rechargeable batteries, making disposing batteries convenient.
