Household Batteries
Madison residents and taxpayers can recycle household batteries by first getting them ready for recycling then bringing them to the City’s drop-off sites. There is no fee for batteries at the Streets Division drop-off sites.
Many stores also offer battery recycling.
Hardware stores (Home Depot, Ace Hardware, etc.) and stores that sell electronics (Best Buy, Staples, etc.) may offer battery recycling.
Specialty battery stores (Batteries Plus) also offer battery recycling. Call the one nearest your home to check on their program and if there are costs.
