At Interstate, we’re serious about guarding the environment.
We’ve been recycling for more than 50 years, running safe
and clean operations across the Continental U.S. and Canada.
We at Interstate Batteries do all we can to be a good
neighbor and to keep the environment the way we found it.
We take great care in handling the disposal of lead-acid
batteries, which is strictly regulated by federal and state
legislation, in an environmentally friendly way. We return
spent batteries to EPA-approved smelters where the lead and
plastic are recycled to make new batteries and products.
How can you help?
Battery users also have a hand in protecting the
environment. Be sure to use batteries that ensure their full
service life, and return your spent battery when you purchase
a new one.
- Ask your sales representative to discuss any recycling
questions you may have.
- Rechargeable batteries containing cadmium or lead
should be recycled.
- Return worn-out lead-acid batteries like car batteries
to be recycled to make new batteries and products.
- Ask your sales representative if she or he can help you
get death certificates for EPA audits.
- Call your local government recycling coordinator for
the nearest recycling center or bring them back to us.
