Battery recycling

Simone Borgstede from Wellington City Council

Did you know you can recycle your household batteries for free?
We have created seven drop-off stations around the city where you can take your batteries to be separated for re-use, recovery and re-processing.
The locations are:

๐Ÿ“ Island Bay Community Centre
๐Ÿ“ Karori Library
๐Ÿ“ Kilbirnie Library
๐Ÿ“ Newlands Community Centre
๐Ÿ“ Tawa Community Centre
๐Ÿ“ Te Awe Library (CBD)
๐Ÿ“ Tip Shop at the Southern Landfill

Used batteries are no longer allowed in your kerbside rubbish as they can leach harmful chemicals into soil and waterways, so itโ€™s important to keep them out of the landfill.

Head to our website for more information.
