Battery pickup for offices
For battery recycling residents, offices with UPS rooms or multiple backup batteries can request bulk pickup — mention the quantity and types so the visit can be planned for the right vehicle and handling.
Damaged batteries need extra care
For battery recycling residents, a swollen battery has already started to fail internally — don't puncture it, don't try to flatten it back into shape, and keep it away from other items and heat. Photograph it and flag it specifically when booking so the team can plan safe handling.
