All batteries need to be removed from devices and disposed of separately. The Baywaste Transfer Station & Recycling Centre does not accept any batteries other than vehicle lead acid batteries. To find the nearest drop off point for batteries, visit B-cycle.

Electronic Waste taken to the Baywaste Transfer Station & Recycling Centre must be placed in the designated drop off location instructed by staff. If you are dropping off other items at the same time e.g. general waste, please ensure the Electronic Waste is kept separate for recycling purposes.
