A little preparation makes a battery recycling visit easier. Identify the chemistry, note the quantity and check for swelling, leakage or other damage. Call first for unusual packs rather than assuming every battery can be dropped off.

Know the store policy

We accept used lead-acid starter and deep-cycle batteries, including car and truck, motorcycle, ATV, lawn mower, golf cart, marine and RV batteries. We do not accept single-use, non-rechargeable alkaline AA, AAA, C, D or 9V household batteries.

In Michigan, household alkaline batteries can be placed in regular household trash, subject to any additional requirements from your local waste provider. This guidance does not apply to lithium, rechargeable or lead-acid batteries: those do not belong in household trash or curbside recycling bins.

For a different chemistry, an unusual pack or a damaged or swollen battery, call before bringing it in. Our team can confirm current recycling options, preparation requirements and any applicable charges. See our battery recycling information for current store details.
