Don’t risk using an uncertified battery recycler: fines can be excessive and may ultimately fall back on the person selling the material.

We offer our customers the peace of mind that they are not liable for any incidents which may occur after their batteries have left their facility.

We maintain comprehensive business, auto, and pollution insurance with a large umbrella. You may also request to be named as additional insured.

It is important to know where your recycled batteries are going so that any damages to persons or property that result from improper handling and disposal of batteries do not fall back on you. We’ve got you covered.

We visit every smelter we sell to in order to see how they operate and ensure that they are EPA-compliant and follow good safety practices.

Disposal documentation containing our EPA Number is available to you upon request.
