Battery Recycling and Disposal
Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable batteries can be recycled.
However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under
various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, NiCd
batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landfills or
incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for
specific requirements and information in your area.
Motorola fully endorses and encourages the recycling of NiCd
batteries. In the U.S. and Canada, Motorola participates in the
nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC)
program for NiCd battery collection and recycling. Many retailers and
dealers participate in this program.
For the location of the drop-off facility closest to you, access RBRC's
Internet web site at www.rbrc.com or call 1-800-8-BATTERY. This
internet site and telephone number also provide other useful
information concerning recycling options for consumers, businesses,
and governmental agencies.
