So I replaced the battery of my Graphing Calculator and my Headphones just recently, and now i’m left with 2 batteries that I don’t how to dispose of.
As far as I am aware, there are no battery recycling stations around me (if that’s a thing, I heard it is), and If there are any, I kind of need to be told where lol!
The Headphone Battery was full capacity when I replaced it, oh and because it was attached via adhesive, it flexed a good amount during removal so i’m afraid to keep it.
Graphing Calculator Battery doesn’t hold a charge anymore.
Please help? Thanks :)
Edit: I currently live in California if that helps :)
Without knowing where you live (at least the country…) your guess is as good as mine.
Where I’m from I can drop old batteries off at every electronics retailer and they have to recycle/dispose of them.
Oh sorry about that,
right now, I live in the US, specifically in California if that helps :)

That should list all nearby recycling centers. They don’t mention batteries specifically, but this sub-page does and it links there, so I’m assuming batteries are considered part of the e-waste: https://calrecycle.ca.gov/epr/batteries/
Found a recycling spot! A bit far, but I recognize the area so I can get there during a weekend or something. I’ll see if they accept batteries.
Thank you so much for helping me!
