If the battery you want to recycle is embedded, meaning it is a part of the device itself, don't remove it; bring the whole device to the store. One of our associates will safely recycle the used battery for you. If the batteries are NOT embedded, remove them from the device and bring them to your local Batteries Plus store to ensure proper recognition.

Costs will vary by location due to local and state regulations. Please check with your local store for exact costs in your area.
