I came up with hits, yes, but most of what's around me seems to be places that deal in commercial quantities. I'm looking for something like "Yeah, The Homeless Despot or Worst Buy still takes them" before I trundle off to a store I don't want to be in only to find out they don't take them anymore.
Aaahaaahaaha! "the homeless despot"
sigh
That really hits close to home.
I know that's petty but it's amusing to me.
My IKEA accepts old batteries and lightbulbs. Check them out if one is near you. My municipal dump has several locations were you can drop off recyclable items that are too big for the wheelie bin, or chemicals or batteries. Call your city dump and see if they have a battery recycling program, if not, if they can point you in the right direction.
Call the city's waste handling. I didn't think of that. I'll do that Monday.
I think there's one of those, but it's about 30 miles away. I seem to remember that it made a big stink when it opened, they were expecting thousands of people, shut down streets and offices around it, cops everywhere - but it was just a ho-hum thing.
Go to those stores websites. Find the phone number for your locality. Call them.
