Battery disposal is often difficult. They cannot be thrown into ordinary garbage containers, and you will not find special boxes for receiving them with fire during the day. But responsible sellers and everyone who is not alien to the topic of the environment, nevertheless found a way out of this situation.
The most popular place for collecting and recycling batteries in Moscow is IKEA stores. In the loading area, you can find special yellow boxes in which you can put batteries. Of course, you won't go to the store specifically for the sake of one battery. But you can start a box where you put the used items. And once a year to combine business with pleasure - and get rid of batteries, and buy something for the house.
If visiting IKEA is not part of your plans, in principle, you need to look for a store closer. Why a store? Only large companies (chain stores, enterprises) can collect a large volume of raw materials to send them for processing. And the batteries are sent to Chelyabinsk - the only plant for the processing of batteries in Russia "Megapolisresurs" so far. Therefore, collecting and transporting batteries is costly and troublesome.
You can also look for containers for collecting batteries in large household appliances stores - "Eldorado", "M-video", "Leroy Merlin" (store in Altufevo), "EnergoMet". The VkusVill farm products store is also on the ecology path - there are boxes at the entrance to the markets.
Although sometimes you don't have to go far, just come to your management company. Some of them, according to the Moscow program, began to accept batteries and energy-saving lamps in their offices. And some enterprising residents, together with the management company, are installing containers in the entrances of their houses.
