Commissioner Walter Harris brought an initiative to encourage the recycling of household batteries by the
city's residents and to facilitate a means by which to do so to the City Commission on March 2, 2010 and
the Administration was directed to investigate the alternatives. The City's Public Works department
researched the possible options that would be available to the City and its residents as an accessible and cost
effective manner in which to recycle household batteries.
There . is another option available using a service provided by companies like Air Cycle Corporation, EQ
Sustainable Solutions and ToxCo, Inc. (The Greea Box) which offer a battery and portable electronic device
recycling program.
These companies offer a convenient process to recycle household batteries. They provide a pre-paid box
/container which can be placed at strategic locations throughout the City. The cost of the service includes
shipping via common carrier to an approved recycling center.
