The Battery Network

The Battery Network

Nationwide battery collection and recycling network

Overview

The Battery Network coordinates a nationwide system that connects consumers, communities, and partners to safely collect, transport, and recycle batteries across the United States. It operates a network of drop-off points and approved facilities to manage and recycle used batteries, reducing hazardous waste and recovering materials. The product is a coordinated collection and recycling workflow rather than a single device or software, guiding users from battery drop-off to processing at certified facilities. It differentiates itself by continuing the legacy of Call2Recycle, offering an established national reach, emphasis on safety, and active community and partner engagement to expand battery recycling. The company’s goal is to safely collect and recycle batteries to turn yesterday’s waste into tomorrow’s power, helping communities reduce environmental impact and conserve materials through responsible recycling.
