This SAFE Disposal Event is happening tomorrow (Sunday!) in the north plaza in Union Square from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Per the NYC.gov site:
The NYC Department of Sanitation is holding a series of SAFE Disposal Events (Solvents, Automotive, Flammable, Electronics) to provide NYC residents with a one-stop method to get rid of harmful household products.
Materials accepted include common household products such as auto fluids, batteries, electronics, strong cleaners, medications, paint and more.
I was happy they took my dead batteries here; I have several [dead] small appliances as well, but the batteries were something I needed to make sure they weren't just going in the landfill.
ReplyDeleteI use Eneloop rechargeable batteries for all my battery-powered stuff (remotes etc.)
ReplyDeleteThey even offer a D size adapter you can put an AA battery in.
