I've got a plastic box with old batteries in it, waiting for safe disposal as the substances in them aren't nice. It's full.
The council 'recycling centre' has a bin which says 'domestic batteries' and another inside a cage with car batteries in it which says 'industrial batteries'.
Ordinary use once type batteries are simple - domestic. I don't know about the rest so ..... I asked the man overseeing the place where rechargeables go. He said "dunno". I then asked where the button cells go. He said "dunno".
I brought the plastic box home again. Still full.
Does anyone here know the answer?
I'll take them next time I go there and if I know what they all qualify as I'll do things properly, otherwise I'll just default to emptying the whole lot in the domestic bin.
