Single-Use Alkaline Batteries:

Recycle, Don’t Toss, Stash

Every Costco, Sam’s Club, or Walmart has walls of—AA, AAA, C, D, 9V—sold and restocked monthly. With multiple stores per city, the U.S. sells over 3 billion batteries yearly, including ~880 million AAs. At ResQ, we’re laser-focused on collecting single-use alkaline batteries for recycling, up to 96% of their materials—steel, zinc, manganese—into new batteries or products like fertilizers with our partners and sponsors. With our ResQ Bins, It’s as simple as taking your ResQ Box full of stashed household batteries to your favorite retailer on our drop-off map.

Each year, the U.S. uses ~880 million AA batteries.

Laid end-to-end, they’d circle the Earth’s equator, stretching 27,340 miles. Stacked up, they’d tower over Mount Everest. Recycling recovers 95% of alkaline battery materials today, and future single-use sodium-ion batteries could hit 98%, using abundant sodium for a greener planet.

ResQ is your go-to for recycling single-use alkaline batteries, working with our partners, we can recover up to 96% of their materials. Using rechargeables? They’re a great choice vs single-use, but don’t drop them off with us. Often you may have access to recycling rechargeables and lithium at Batteries Plus or Home Depot (check locally).
