Batteries

Recology CleanScapes offers free curbside collection of button, alkaline, and rechargeable batteries for Burien single-family & multi-family residential customers.

Curbside Battery Collection
Put household batteries inside a tightly sealed plastic bag, and place on top of your closed recycling cart on collection day. Please place rechargeable batteries in a separate sealed plastic bag.

Apartment Battery Collection
Apartment and condominium owners must call or submit a Special Recycling Item Request to arrange for a collection. Service must be requested by the bill payer on record. Please DO NOT set batteries next to carts or containers.

Property Managers: Establish a centrally located collection container at your property – a lobby, multi-use room, mail room or clubhouse – for residents to place their bagged batteries.

Please note: Motor vehicle/marine batteries are NOT accepted in your curbside recycling. Most battery retailers and auto repair shops accept auto batteries for recycling.

Drop Off
Residential customers may also drop off household batteries at The Recology Store Highline.
