ATP Battery Disposal Scheme

Save the environment by disposing of your batteries correctly

Why recycle batteries?

Recycling batteries is important for a number of reasons. Batteries can contain chemicals such as lead, mercury or cadmium. When you dispose of them with your normal rubbish, most will end up in landfill where the chemicals they contain may leak into the ground. This can pollute the soil and water and potentially harm human health.

Recycling also recovers some of the materials used to make batteries and these can be used again to make other products and potentially to make new batteries. Recycling can also save some of the earth’s natural resources and save on CO2 emissions by reducing the need to mine new materials.

What to do next?

Send your batteries back to ATP with clear instructions that they are for disposal or just pop them into our recycling point in our reception. ATP will then dispose of the batteries through a Battery Compliance Scheme at no cost to you (other than the postage).
It is your responsibility to ensure that the waste batteries are correctly packaged and sent safely.

If you have any doubts please contact us directly.
