What is a collection point?
A Batribox collection point is a place where individuals can drop off their used batteries for recycling. Located in stores, businesses, local authorities and schools, they play a key role in :
- Preserving the environment by facilitating the recycling of hazardous waste.
- Raising public awareness of the importance of recycling, thanks to the information tools provided by Batribox.
The efficient management of these collection points is essential to ensure the safe storage of used batteries and optimize their recycling.
