JOIN THE MOVEMENT
Stash, Drop, ResQ: The Easy Battery Recycling Loop.
Single-Use Alkaline Batteries:
Recycle, Don’t Toss, Stash
Big box retailers sell over 3 billion AA, AAA, C, D, and 9V batteries annually. ResQ targets single-use alkaline batteries, recycling up to 96% of their materials—steel, zinc, manganese—into new batteries or fertilizers with our partners. With ResQ Bins, just drop your stashed batteries at a mapped retailer.
A World of Opportunity
Each year, the U.S. uses ~1 Billion AA batteries.
Alkaline batteries could circle Earth's equator or tower over Everest annually. Recycling recovers up to 96% of their materials, and future sodium-ion batteries may reach 98%, leveraging abundant sodium for a greener planet.
Dead Batteries Don’t Belong in the Ground.
Our Sustainable Path
ResQ recycles single-use alkaline batteries, recovering up to 96% of materials with our partners. Using rechargeables? Great choice, but don’t drop them with us. Recycle rechargeables and lithium at Batteries Plus or Home Depot (check locally).
