Car Batteries have chemicals that can damage the environment, which is why correct disposal of these batteries is essential. Here are some of the preferred ways to dispose car batteries:

  • It sold at an auto shop or parts store. (This is probably the most common way to recycle a car battery)
  • It can be returned to the retailer in exchange for a discounted price on the new battery.
  • It can be sold at a scrap metal depot.
