Action Taken by Adur and Worthing Council to Recycle Batteries

Adur and Worthing council in UK takes action to collect used batteries as part of their waste recycling program.

According to The Argus, the council of Adur and Worthing in the UK is taking action to collect used batteries as part of their street-side appliance recycling service.

The city council is requesting residents to place batteries in plastic bags to prevent them from falling out of the metal cages in the waste recycling trucks and onto the streets.

A spokesperson for the city council stated, "We are now able to recycle household batteries through our waste electrical equipment collection service on our streets, saving you the trip to the supermarket or landfill to dispose of them.

Last month, we started to collect disposable and refillable e-cigarettes because of their small size and they should also be placed in bags.
