Batteries are often built with a variety of metals. These metals can include lead, zinc, mercury, nickel, lithium, and aluminum. Batteries should be recycled rather than discarded in the trash because of their impact on the immediate environment. A battery that is discarded into the trash can have its heavy metals leach into the surrounding soil and water supplies. This could contaminate local wildlife and plants very quickly, leading to lead and metal poisoning.
Recycling batteries is not only better for the environment, but it will also enable cheaper, safer production in the future, supporting sustainable manufacturing of batteries and other products made of precious metals. That's part of why I-80 Metals focuses on making recycling batteries, and other scrap metals, easy.
When recycling large lead batteries from vehicles or power arrays, it is best to collect a larger volume of batteries. You can return smaller amounts of batteries to some local auto shops for credit, but your best ROI will come from saving up a larger amount of batteries and bringing them to I-80 Metals Recycling.
At I-80 Metals Recycling, we can provide you with scrap container services. All you have to do is fill up the container, and we will come pick it up, then haul it back to our shop.
The yield from lead-acid auto battery recycling largely depends on the prices of the metals it contains. Estimates fluctuate regularly, but I-80 Metals Recycling is constantly keeping up on industry prices so you can get the best return possible. We encourage you to call us ahead of time to get an idea of the current market and an estimate at the current time. We want to make sure we get you paid for your scrap!
Contact I-80 Metals Recycling today if you have any questions about lead acid battery recycling. We can also answer any questions about other scrap recycling services. We proudly serve the Girard and Youngstown area. Many of our customers return because of the level of customer service we provide. We look forward to meeting you and working with you.
