Where can I recycle my car battery?

Lead acid (automotive) batteries are covered in a recycling program though the Province of BC. Many local recycling depots, landfills and transfer stations will accept car batteries free of charge for recycling. There are also several private scrap metal or battery recycling companies that accept or pay for automotive batteries. Please handle and store car batteries with care! Call the RCBC Recycling Hotline or search the RCBC Recyclepedia for the collection facility nearest you.
