Disposal
For disposal, batteries must be packaged and shipped in accordance with
transportation regulations, to a proper disposal site. The U.S. Department of
Transportation authorizes shipment of “Lithium batteries for disposal” by motor
vehicle only in regulation 173.1015 of CFR 49 (effective January 5, 1983). For
additional information contact:

Although the Environmental Protection Agency at this time has no regulations
specific to lithium batteries, the material contained may be considered toxic,
reactive, or corrosive. The person disposing of the material is responsible for any
hazard created in doing so. State and local regulations may exist regarding the
disposal of these materials.
