Battery collection event

Cupertino residents can bring their old rechargeab­le devices to a recycling event on Saturday 9 a.m.-1 p.m., outside Cupertino City Hall. Recyclable devices include mobile phones, electric toothbrush­es, laptops, power tool batteries, Bluetooth speakers, rechargeab­le vacuum batteries, retired e-bike batteries and wireless headphones. Batteries should be removed from devices and data wiped before drop-off.

Every rechargeab­le lithiumion battery is a source for making new batteries and sustainabl­e products. Recycling keeps batteries out of landfills, reduces the need to mine critical minerals and helps increase the security of our domestic supply chains.
