I think you have to recycle them because they contain hazardous material. So, you cannot just throw them in the garbage. When you recycle them, they are disposed of safely and I think they recycle some of the metals.

There are specific centers where you can take all your used batteries, usually our community has one weekend when you can take in all your hazardous wastes to be properly disposed.

I am very careful while disposing the old batteries as they could ignite.

You should recycle them as they have dangerous chemicals inside of them (especially the big ones). Also watch out for leaking batteries. Take proper precautions when handling and disposing of them as it may be dangerous.

Regular scrapyards might also take them as well, call and ask. If not, call your village or town hall and ask what the do with theirs.
